Arsenal will undoubtedly receive relatively low odds because their next game will be played at home and we know the reputation of emirate stadium this season. it's always becoming the house of dead to the other clubs. Arsenal has always performed well at home, so it makes sense that bookmakers would offer very low odds for Arsenal. Porto will face a major test to determine its status in UCL. Arsenal was always playing crazily at home by scoring as many goals as possible. It's obvious that Arsenal will win the game soon, but Porto still has a slight chance as long as porto keep plays defensively. Porto will probably win as long as the game ends in a draw. The main requirement is for the club to utilize a parking bus strategy against Arsenal. I don't mind if porto played so passively in this match as long as it will win the game or draw.
This will also have a significant impact on Arsenal's performance because scoring will be more difficult, causing them to panic even more. Betting in Porto involves a high risk of losing your bet. I'd rather bet on a total of over 2.75 or BTTS.
It is likely that Porto will be able to defeat Arsenal, but it all depends on the strategy that will be used in the upcoming game against Arsenal. I will call porto a a stupid club if it's putting the big risk by playing offensively against arsenal.
Arsenal is capable enough to destroy it with huge margins. Put all players into the penalty box and it will help club a lot.
Arsenal is scheduled to host Porto in the 2nd leg of the UCL Round of 16 in few days at the Emirates. Arsenal who on aggregate are currently behind after losing the first leg with a last minute goal will be going into this match with much confidence to reverse the score and get the qualification. Arsenal team are on fore currently from the matches we’ve seen the club play after that defeat and how massive they’ve been scoring and playing as a team. This brings us to know where they’ll be garnering confidence for this fixture
Their current form and momentum is one of the major reasons why Arsenal should be favored to defeat Porto. They have dominantly won their last 7 games since mid season break and they’ve scored whooping 31 goals which is massive and worthy of recognition. Now they are have been handed a major boost which brings them to sit top of the EPL table with the win against Brentford over the weekend. Arsenal have a better squad depth as compared to Porto and most of their players returning from injury is a major boost as this would cause lots of worry for Porto.
Arteta is a tactical genius and you can’t doubt he’s got the acumen to be able to build up a tactics to explore on Porto’s weaknesses with his boy’s strength. The major confidence is them playing at the Emirate, the joy of playing infront of their devoted fans and at a familiar ground will be the biggest boost that they can sure overturn this aggregate score. The fans presence will give an extra dose of inspiration, and confidence as they face Porto. Porto are in for a big game and I’m sure Arsenal will feast on them properly so if I’m to place my money on this game, I think I’m confident of Arsenal having up to 3 goals in this match.
Regarding this match, there is good news for Porto and it's about the player of Arsenal, Gabriel Martinelli.
It seems Martinelli can't help his team in the important game they are going to have against Porto in the Champions League.
While in the first leg, Arsenal lost the match with a 1-0 result and this can damage the team because they will be under more pressure to have an attacking style in this match. However, that's not hard for Arteta and his players to score many goals in this match because Arsenal had good attacks during the games we saw from them in this season but still, this can make the game very hard to predict and very much risky to bet on any of these two teams for this match.
