1. Arsenal Porto: Team news and Probable Lineups
2. Arsenal – Porto: Data Analysis
==============
In the aftermath of Arsenal’s commanding six-goal victory over Sheffield United, the celebratory atmosphere at the Emirates was dampened by news of Gabriel Martinelli’s injury setback. The Brazilian forward suffered a severe cut to his foot during the match, and despite his spirited efforts, he was spotted navigating the stadium on crutches over the weekend. Consequently, Martinelli’s prospects of making a swift recovery in time for Tuesday’s fixture appear to have dwindled.

Adding to Arsenal’s injury woes, Takehiro Tomiyasu’s availability remains uncertain due to a knock, while Jurrien Timber continues to face an extended spell on the sidelines as he recuperates from an ACL injury. Nevertheless, the Gunners found solace in the return of Oleksandr Zinchenko, who overcame a calf concern to bolster their ranks against Brentford.

In the goalkeeping department, David Raya finds himself in contention to reclaim his starting role from Aaron Ramsdale. Ramsdale, though commendable in the second half with a couple of crucial saves, was marred by a first-half error that led to Brentford’s equalizing goal.

Turning to Porto’s squad status, the Portuguese side welcomes the return of left-back Wendell, who has recuperated from an injury that forced his early substitution in the first leg. However, defenders Zaidu Sanusi and Ivan Marcano remain sidelined as they continue their rehabilitation from ACL injuries.

Amidst concerns over Gabriel Veron’s Achilles issue, Porto receives a glimmer of hope with star striker Mehdi Taremi’s anticipated involvement after missing the first leg due to a thigh concern. Taremi’s return poses a tactical dilemma for manager Francisco Conceicao, who must navigate the inclusion of the indispensable Evanilson, the team’s twenty-one-goal striker.

In defense, Porto will once again rely on the experience and leadership of the evergreen Pepe, who, at 41 years old, continues to marshal the backline with unwavering resolve. Despite the injury setbacks, Porto remains determined to overcome adversity and deliver a formidable performance in the upcoming fixture.
