Many people expect to win because this is a match at the Emirates Stadium so the game might be the same as a match in the domestic league, no wonder people think that way because the bookies are the same with Arsenal odds of 1.24 while Porto odds are 11.00 isn't this very far compared even though Porto still has the advantage of winning in the first leg.

Bookies seem more confident that Arsenal will win on paper.

Don't know why these odds are so far apart, I don't think Porto should be underestimated but this is a bit excessive what the bookies are offering against the odds so who dares to take the odds?

I'm not sure Porto will win, but there's still a chance Arsenal will win.

I'm sure Arsenal can excel in this Leg 2 match, even though Porto is superior on aggregate, but the situation will be different for the Gunner. Porto at home was only able to score 1 goal, so I can somewhat conclude that they should be able to do more than that if they act as hosts. Well, Arsenal's conditions here are quite supportive to take advantage of its advantages. If you look at the statistics before playing, the home team's probability of winning is above 75%. For Porto, who came to the Emirates Stadium, it was certainly not easy to adapt, and during H2H Porto was not able to score a single goal against Arsenal.

A big team like Arsenal will not shift its focus to just one title, they have quite good strength this season and Arenal's percentage of getting through to the quarter-finals is still very high even though they lost in the first leg.
We have to look at this realistically, regardless of what happened in the first leg, but in my opinion we also have to see overall that Arsenal's quality is better than Porto.

This second leg will be a fierce and eagerly awaited match because this will definitely be an interesting match because Arsenal is behind by 1 goal in the first leg, but for this second leg, Arsenal, who will play at home, of course has a large enough percentage to win. match.
I have no hesitation in betting on Arsenal winning tonight's game.

This returning match will be very serious for Arsenal because there last meeting with Porto was not so nice for them because they end up losing the match, so I agree with you that there would be a lot of attention on this match because considering what Arsenal played on there previous meeting with Porto people will be very curious to know what will become of Arsenal today, so perhaps if there is any good performance left with Arsenal on this champions League this is actually the moment they need to utilize it because losing this match again will not be good for them, although I realized that currently it seems that Arsenal main focus is not on this league but however they are more focus on the premier League because if you check very well there performance on the premier League is Totally different from there performance here but however they will be at home advantage on this match so they should have more opportunities over Porto on this match.

Judging by the present situation on ground it's looking like Arsenal is already at disadvantage and needs an extra work and performance to be able to fix the team else they will most likely be relegated from the champions league, they literally need beyond their regular performance to out play both the goal difference and win advantage that Porto has already gotten ahead if they must win and qualify to the next stage for the league game.

Arsenal is In a good and sound form but there are fears they may not be able to take Porto out because even Porto currently has been of good performance in their domestic League even if their domestic league isn't in any way compared to the champions league but that is a boost for their confidence and their attitude towards winning in this meeting against Arsenal. Arsenal needs to win with at least three goals ahead whereby Porto will have no goal then they can be sure to get to the next stage of the champions league but if Porto gets a goal them it further increases the pressure on arsenal.

I don't know how well Arsenal will be able to manage the pressure that will come from porto especially if Porto gets a goal, that will actually threatens their chances of qualifying but then I want to believe that the top team in the premier league will still be top too at the champions league, as they have gotten a good level of experience which I'd employed they will be able to gwt a chance but they will have to play much better than they did in their first meeting.

It's probably two or three goals. I'm not even expecting more than these goals caused by the fact we do know so well about how strong Porto's defensive line was from the previous game. Arsenal shall never ever try to underestimate his opponent or he will get another blunder.
The chance owned by the club to win the game is quite high and this is also forcing porto to play defensively in the upcoming game. Porto is good but considering the next game is gonna happen away for porto and it sounds impossible for porto to win the game but let's see that.
Porto's odds are very big because bookmakers fully favor Arsenal to win the next game at Emirates Stadium. We do know how scrazy Emirates is from the EPL. Arsenal was always destroying their opponent, but Porto shall be able to play equally to Arsenal to ensure it can prevent Arsenal from scoring in this game.
Im feeling so damn good with the performance from porto in the first leg. Arsenal made 0 shots on target away and porto may also does a small chance on its strategy for the upcoming game soon. I expect a hard game for arsenal.
Both of clubs will be scoring in the upcoming game.

I do agree with everyone that Arsenal will go further, but at the same time I am not sure if they even should. Do we see them win the whole thing? I mean it is possible that is true but I think it would be unlikely, and it would not be all that easy for them to achieve something like that.

So we see City trying to win it, and we see Liverpool trying to get Europa and both teams have a great chance to win that actually, whereas Arsenal "may" win UCL as well, there is a chance, Chelsea did terrible at the league the year they won it for example with Tuchel, so yeah Arsenal could do it too. However, if they decide not to, then they can focus only on the league, whereas City and Liverpool will get tired at Europe, could actually benefit to lose out this one.

We have no doubt that Arsenal's performance in the Premier League is good. However, it is difficult to say how Arsenal will do in the Champions League. Arsenal's performance in the first leg match was very poor. Just because Arsenal lost I'm not saying their performance was poor. In the 90 minutes of the first leg match, Arsenal players could not make a single shot on target. Such a poor performance was not at all expected from a team like Arsenal. Despite being in good form, Arsenal played badly in the first leg against Porto.

The big bad news for Arsenal is that Gabriel Martinelli will not be in the squad for this match. Martinelli will miss the match due to injury. Martinelli is a very important player in Arsenal's squad.

I don't think the Porto team is very strong. However, the defense of this team is undoubtedly very strong. And so it will be very difficult for Arsenal to win today's match by 2-0 margin.

There are high chances that Arsenal will qualified but it will not come easy. FC Porto is very experienced with youthful team that are both scoring and defending with passion. Their key man Galeno, who scored Arsenal in their last meeting is still very much active, scoring almost in all their matches and this is something Arsenal should be worried about. They might not be able to stop him from scoring, so the best they can do is to score three goals to make the goal aggregate 3-2 if they have to qualify.

Arsenal is not also doing badly this season and even of recent. I have the believe that they will be able to defeat Porto tonight, leveraging on their big name and the huge home support they will be enjoying. I look forward to watching an interesting match between tonight.

napoli does not look like they have that strength to even Barcelona because the way things are now Barcelona has improved and Napoli has nothing changed so it is another win for Barcelona and being that Barcelona is hosting then that has even given them more chances to even to be able to defeat Napoli aside the strength the home advantage is also there. and Barcelona knows what is at stake and will do everything possible to win. Because Napoli won them in their house. the big score is not that important if they can even win with 1:0 it is still a win.

xavi will have his reason for rotating the squad he must have taken note of some things and looked for ways that he can penetrate Napoli more because you there not look down on any club if they could win their last game i don't see the injury as a problem to Barcelona to be able to win.

I'm also not entirely sure Arsenal will manage to win because after all, basically Porto is also not a weak team so it will still be difficult for Arsenal to beat Porto. But indeed, even so, I also admit that Arsenal still have a goodchance based on existing factors and also based on a prediction . Therefore, I also quite sure that there will be many goals in this match but yes, if Porto can really defend well, then at least the match will end with a low number of goals. But anyway, because Arsenal have had a good trend of scoring a lot of goals lately, then I expect this match to end with a lot of goals and I don't really care which team will win and qualify for the quarterfinals.

Today at leaste we have two games were anything can happen, for me the big ones are gonna pass to the quarterfinals i mean Arsenal and Barcelona just in case.

But i have my questions about how this is gonna happen, i think Arsenal have to work a lot to break the 0 in the Porto goal, and Barcelona have to defend much better to not suffer against Napoli speed in the fowards.

Arsenal are performing like this in the English Premier League so we have no doubts about their good performance but how well they will perform in the Champions League is now uncertain. English Premier League competition and Champions League competition are two different. The later rounds of the Champions League the tougher the opposition for any team. Arsenal are performing well in the English Premier League but they need to improve their performance to do well in the Champions League. With the way Atlético Madrid is performing, this team cannot be relied on much, especially in the Champions League competition. With the way they are performing, we may not see Atletico Madrid in the next round. Atletico Madrid were beaten by Inter Milan by one goal in the first leg and will not be able to progress to the next round if they cannot make it 2-0 or more in the second leg.

TO started at 1.75, indicated that the game would end with around two goals or even more, but it's also highly anticipated when the match from these clubs unable to produce more than 2 goals. TO odds can surpass Barcelona's odds if there will be at very least three goals or even more in the game. However, picking TO 2.75 may not be possible due to the possibility of a narrow score to happen soon. Given the club's history of bottling games, I believe Barcelona will struggle to score many points in this game caused by napoli may come with something different to beat barcelona probably something like parking bus.

In terms of odds, betting on Barcelona is a best choice to bet for this match. BTTS still has lower odds than the Barcelona win. Napoli had a bad reputation when it played at Camp Nou, and this may still continue soon. This game's outcome may have a significant impact on the situation of clubs in the domestic league. Barcelona will play completely offensively, causing Napoli to face numerous problems but it can be higly anticipated as long as napoli goes defensively against barcelona.
The likelihood of Barcelona receiving a draw and a penalty may occur soon since draw is likely to happen too. Napoli is not in as good of shape as Barcelona.

Unlike what you think, FC Porto cannot be relaxed in England during the Champions League round of 16 match this night. There is no how a club like Porto will travel all the way to England and be relaxed to play Arsenal. Arsenal has a bigger name in the history of Champions League down Porto even if they have not won the league. But then recently Arsenal has been in a very great form both in the English Premier League where they are currently at the top of the table and the Champions League. Apart from that some good players are also available for Mikel Arteta to use, so it is believed that Arsenal is going to qualify ahead of Porto in this very much unless they are very reluctant to do so. One goal is not too much for Arsenal attack to equalize and even score more only if they are determined. Although it is going to be an interesting match tonight.

Of course, Arteta probably learned from the previous first leg match where his team, specifically in the back line, often gave Porto many gaps which in the last minute allowed Porto to score a goal and win the match in the previous first leg match. I know that playing at the Emirates stadium will be an advantage. For Arsenal to play in front of all their supporters to get enthusiasm which is probably clear that will make Arsenal have more enthusiasm to play optimally to be able to win against Porto tonight because even though it may be difficult, Arsenal must be able to do it.

If Porto plays well in their back line and plays defensively, of course it will make it difficult for Arsenal to score goals, because Porto only needs a goalless draw to be able to continue to the next round and immediately send Arsenal home from the UCL league this season, but I'm sure everyone believe that Arsenal have a chance to win today, at least they won 2 - 0 and have managed to qualify for the next round with an aggregate of 2 - 1, you don't need to win big, just a narrow win is more than enough, Arsenal will be today's favorites in the market sports betting and apart from that, Arsenal must remain careful about Porto's counterattack which might surprise Arsenal.

I don`t think so man, I think it won`t be a good match but it will be carnage

obviously Barcelona will totally slaughter Napoli
Napoli who are unable to do well with small teams, let alone with teams of the caliber of Barcelona..

I think this match will not be a difficult match for Arsenal. Even though Arsenal currently lost by 1 point to Porto, it should be noted that it is very difficult to beat Arsenal at home. Arsenal has a good home record against Porto, namely always winning in 3 matches.

Arsenal are more favored to win that match. They have a level above Porto. In the first leg Arsenal dominated the match but Porto defended so well in the first leg that Arsenal did not have a single shot on goal. But Porto also had difficulty penetrating Arsenal's defense and they failed to take advantage of several opportunities in front of goal. The only goal was late in the game and it was a kick outside the box. Of course, Arsenal will not allow Porto to attempt a kick from outside the penalty box in the match. Arsenal will play at the Emirates Stadium and I predict Arsenal will win with a score of 2-0 or 3-1.

They both don't have good defense but have good attacking and their favorite tactics is attacking too. I think different than you that this match can be very goal productive and if it has many goals, it will be an exciting match.

It will possibly happen if a first goal is scored in early of the match, it will cause the match more opening and we might see many goals from both teams. With advantage of Nou Camp, Barcelona are more favorite to beat Napoli but Napoli still have opportunity by targeting at Barcelona's defense weakness. They will use almost everything they have for this match as they nearly don't have big targets to do in their domestic league. Barcelona are safe in top four of La Liga and Napoli are still far from Serie A top four. Going to quarter finals in Champions League will help them getting more money from UEFA.
