Portsmouth arrive hampered by a lengthy injury list and recent form that offers little encouragement ahead of this tie. Theres nothing in their performances to suggest Arsenal should view this trip as a serious obstacle. Arsenal, meanwhile, will be keen to set the tone in the competition and make a statement early. Even with Arteta likely to rotate and protect his key starters, the depth and quality in the Gunners squad should be more than enough. On paper, this seems like a one-sided contest, with Arsenal expected to have too much and win comfortably.

Team Analysis : Borussia Dortmund enter this game following a 3-3 Bundesliga drawn game against Eintracht Frankfurt. Over their prior 6 games, Niko Kovač's Borussia Dortmund have netted a combined total of 9 times resulting in an average number of goals per match of 1.5. In the game prior to this, Werder Bremen drew 0-0 in the Bundesliga match with Augsburg. The stats dont lie, and Werder Bremen have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 11 goals in total. In defence, Werder Bremen have clearly had some problems. Still, well just have to find out if that trend shall be sustained in this next game. Prediction : Its likely that Werder Bremen will do really well to find the back of the net against a Borussia Dortmund side who should be able to create a lot of chances for themselves and convert these into goals.

Team Analysis : Roma will be hoping for a repeat of their last result, following the 2-0 Serie A success vs Sassuolo. Their most recent results really do illustrate the point that not much more can be done by the Roma backline. Roma have been mean at the back, resulting in the total number of goals that have gone in at their end over the course of their previous six outings standing at 4. Putting that to one side, we must now wait to see if that pattern might be replicated in this game. Following on from suffering a loss in their previous game against Atalanta in Serie A action, Torino will be aiming to make amends here. Over the course of their previous half-dozen clashes, Torino have helped themselves to the sum of 9 goals. Torino have also managed to score in every single one of those games. During those fixtures, theyve had 7 goals go against them.

Team Analysis : Newcastle United head into this game following on from a 3-3 FA Cup drawn match versus Bournemouth. Its been a rare occasion in recent games that Newcastle United havent conceded. The facts show that Newcastle United have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 games, shipping 10 goals along the way. That kind of trend might not be carried forward into this next game, however. Manchester City head into the game after a 10-1 FA Cup win versus Exeter City in their most recent match. A succession of effective performances by the Manchester City defence has seen the number of goals theyve conceded amounting to 3 from their previous 6 fixtures combined. In that period, their forwards have scored 7.
