Premier League leaders Arsenal take a break from domestic play to shift gears to the UEFA Europa League, traveling to Portugal to take on Sporting CP in Lisbon on Thursday.
The matchup is the first of two legs in their Round of 16 meeting, with the return leg set for a week’s time at Emirates Stadium.
Both clubs face a fierce domestic battle: the Gunners are looking to hold off a furious charge by Manchester City in the title race back in England, while Sporting are clinging to their Champions League lives, sitting fourth in the Portuguese league table but in much better form since the World Cup break concluded.
As both weigh the fight on multiple fronts, an intriguing tactical chess match could ensue as the two sides position themselves for the best chance in the return leg.
