Sporting CP vs Arsenal FC - Observations

Sporting CP v Arsenal - UEFA Europa League - Group E

#5 Liverpool will be just the test this side needs

This could be the best fixture between these two sides in a very long time, we are in for a treat.

Liverpool has been one of the top 10 clubs in the World since the start of last season, and are one of the best attacking teams in all of World football right now. Their front three is absolutely phenomenal, but this season they've added defensive stability to their game and with the signing of Allison Becker, and I personally believe Arsenal could be facing the team that might go on to win the league at the end of the season.

This will be a very stern test for Unai Emery's men and could solidify their top 4 credentials if they come away with any points from this fixture.

Lacazette and Aubameyang going up against the league's best center-back will be an enticing prospect, and if they link up as well as they have against lesser opposition, Liverpool could even end up being blown away by 'Emery ball'.

Tonight's fixture will certainly give Klopp and his men a lot of ideas about how to capitalize on the gaps left at the back by Arsenal, and if the Gunners do come away with any points, expect Lucas Torreira to put in the shift of his life.
