Sporting CP host Arsenal on Thursday for the first leg of their Europa League round of 16 tie.
The Portuguese side come in to the match on a good spell of form, having won their last four matches in all competitions. That includes a three-match run in the Primeira Liga, where they sit in fourth place.
Meanwhile, Arsenal are still leading the Premier League after four straight victories in league play, and they are flying high after a furious comeback against Bournemouth over the weekend. The Gunners will be buoyed by the fact that they've never lost to Sporting in four previous encounters, having kept a clean sheet in all of them.
Here's everything you need to know about the match, including broadcast info and kick-off time:
