Arsenal v FC Porto Live |

Arsenal will have to do without the services of influential skipper Cesc Fabregas when they take on Jesualdo Ferreira’s FC Porto in the Champions League on Tuesday night. Sign up today and see the Gunners take on FC Porto live on your computer.
Arsene Wenger’s side beat Burnley 3-1 in the Premier League on Saturday. However the victory came at a cost as Fabregas limped off with a hamstring injury. The Spaniard scored the opener, with the other goals coming from the boots of Theo Walcott and Andrei Arshavin. Apart from Fabregas, the Gunners will also be missing Robin van Persie, Johan Djorou, Aaron Ramsey and Kieran Gibbs.
Porto won 2-1 at the Dragao thanks to goals from Silvestre Varela and Ruben Micael. The Portuguese giants needed late strikes from Radamel Falcao and Freddy Guarin to draw 2-2 with Olhanense in their last domestic match. Influential striker Hulk missed the Olhanense game because of his ban, but is expected to be back in the starting lineup for the game against Arsenal.
Porto were thrashed 4-0 by the Gunners at the Emirates in September 2008. A repeat of that day will do just fine for Arsene Wenger’s side, while Porto will try and protect their lead from the first leg. Catch all the action between Arsenal and FC Porto live by joining us today.
