Team News: Arsenal vs. Sporting injury, suspension list, predicted XIs

Boasting a precious but precarious 1-0 advantage from the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final, Arsenal welcome Sporting Lisbon to the Emirates Stadium for Wednesday's return fixture.

Kai Havertz was the hero of the hour for the Gunners in Portugal, coming off the bench to bag a last-minute winner and put Mikel Arteta's men within touching distance of a semi-final showdown with Atletico Madrid or Barcelona.
