Having been dreaming of an unprecedented quadruple less than a month ago, Arsenal's chances of winning even one trophy this season are now in serious doubt.
A 2-0 defeat by Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final was followed by a 2-1 FA Cup quarter-final loss to Championship high-fliers Southampton after the international break, before the Gunners' Premier League title hopes suffered a setback with Saturday's 2-1 home defeat by Bournemouth. Mikel Arteta's men remain six points clear of City at the top of the table, having played one game more, but their position is looking much less secure than it did even a few weeks ago.
In the middle of all that came last Tuesday's 1-0 victory at Sporting CP in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final, with Kai Havertz scoring the only goal in second-half stoppage time. That gave Arsenal a clear advantage heading into the second leg at the Emirates Stadium and they will be confident of progressing to the semi-finals for the second successive season.
The Gunners should not take Sporting lightly, though, with the Portuguese champions in terrific form. The visitors have won 16 of their past 21 matches across all competitions, including a 2-1 victory over Champions League holders Paris Saint-Germain in the league phase and an incredible fightback against Bodo/Glimt in the last 16, when they overturned a 3-0 first-leg deficit to triumph 5-3 on aggregate.
