Sporting vs Arsenal Bet Builder Tips: Gunners to respond in Lisbon

Following a shock exit in the FA Cup at the hands of Championship side Southampton, Arsenal will look to respond when they head to the Jose Alvalade Stadium to take on Sporting CP on Tuesday night (20:00, Prime Video).

There was a high-scoring encounter in Lisbon the last time these sides crossed paths and a similar game is tipped to occur in this 15/2 bet builder.

Football Odds

Arsenal to win

Arsenal have produced some of their strongest performances of the season in the Champions League, with their defensive displays particularly impressive.

Mikel Arteta’s side can look back on their last trip to Lisbon with fond memories, having secured a commanding 5-1 victory on their last visit to the Jose Alvalade Stadium in November 2024.

Having beaten the likes of Athletic Bilbao, Slavia Prague, Club Brugge and Inter Milan on the road this season in the Champions League, the Gunners are backed to triumph in Lisbon this week.

Both teams to score

While Arsenal’s defensive form has been largely impressive this season, they have kept just one clean sheet in their last seven away games in all competitions.

Sporting have attacking threats of their own and having scored in all of their last 23 home games, they are expected to also get on the scoresheet in this quarter-final first leg.

Sporting vs Arsenal Odds

Viktor Gyokeres anytime goalscorer

Scoring five goals in his last three games for club and country, Swedish striker Viktor Gyokeres is hitting form at a crucial point in the season.

Bagging a hat-trick against Ukraine before scoring the winner versus Poland to send Sweden to the 2026 World Cup, Gyokeres also found the back of the net against Southampton.

Capable of being in the right place at the right time and with growing confidence following his recent spate of goals, the former Sporting CP striker is backed to score against his former employers on Tuesday night.

Luis Suarez 2+ shots on target

As mentioned, Sporting will have their own attacking threats that Arsenal will have to keep an eye on and Luis Suarez will be a danger in the final third for the hosts.

When it comes to the shot on target stats in the Champions League this season, Suarez is ranked in ninth place, with 14 efforts on goal in 10 appearances.

Not afraid to pull the trigger in and around the box, Suarez to test David Raya in the Arsenal goal at least a couple of times at the Jose Alvalade Stadium completes this four-fold bet builder.
