On the 9th of March, Arsenal will travel to Lisboa to battle Sporting CP in a clash of the Europa League. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, which is great football weather. Sporting CP is fresh off their 1-0 shutout win against Portimonense. Paulinho struck first for Sporting CP in the 77th minute on a feed from Pote, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else At the end of 90 a dissapointed Portimonense couldn’t manage to score, and Sporting CP took the shutout win. Sporting CP is on a hot streak lately, with only 2 loss in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, Arsenal recorded a 3-2 win against AFC Bournemouth. Philip Billing scored the first goal for AFC Bournemouth in the 1st minute, then Marcos Senesi added another in the 57th minute on a feed from Joe Rothwell Finally they completed the comback victory in the 97th minute on a goal by Reiss Nelson to cap off a wild match. With 20 points in their last 10 matches Arsenal should be reasonably happy with their performance.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season.
Martinelli has been on a hot streak lately. In the last 5 games, hes scored 4 goals for Arsenal. Sporting CP is fortunate enough to have Pote in top form. In the last five matches the midfielder has scored 4 goals.
