Team news & squads
Porto team news
Porto boss Sergio Conceicao was served with a fresh injury concern in Sunday's 2-0 league win against Estrela, as left-back Zaidu Sanusi was forced off with an ACL injury.
With the Nigerian possibly ruled out for the rest of the season, apart from Ivan Marcano suffering from an ACL injury of his own, Jorge Sanchez should join veteran Portuguese defender Pepe at the back against Arsenal.
Having missed the Estrela game, Stephen Eustaquio is a doubtful starter. So, Alan Varela is likely to feature in the middle once again, with Mehdi Taremi and Evanilson leading the attack.
Porto possible XI: Costa; Mario, Pepe, Otavio, Sanchez; Pepe, Varela, Gonzalez, Galeno; Taremi, Evanilson
| Position | Players |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers: | Costa, Ramos, Portugal |
| Defenders: | Cardoso, Otavio, Pedro, Pepe (De Lima Ferreira), Wendell, Mario, Sanchez |
| Midfielders: | Varela, Grujic, Eustaquio, Gonzalez, Baro, Jaime, Franco, Pepe (Aquino Cossa) |
