We haven’t seen this poster for a very long time. FC Porto faces Arsenal at the Estadio do Dragão, this Wednesday February 21 at 9 p.m., in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League. After finishing second in its group behind FC Barcelona, the Portuguese club is tackling the London mountain, to try to validate its ticket for the quarter-finals.
Currently third in the championship behind Sporting and Benfica, Pepe’s teammates are dreaming of a great European epic to make their season a success.
For their part, the Gunners, second in the Premier League behind Liverpool, return to the final phase of the most prestigious competition for the first time since 2017, and are among the outsiders in this quest for the title.
Equipped with very good players like Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard, Mikel Arteta’s men have the means to dream in this Champions League and to reach the last four, which they have not reached for 15 years. An eternity.
The Porto-Arsenal match will kick off on Wednesday February 21 at 9 p.m. on beIN Sports 1.
