Arsenal vs Sporting CP Betting Odds
7bet offers competitive betting odds on all Champions League matches, including this fixture.
Please note that the odds mentioned below are accurate as of the time of the article.
1X2 Odds
| Arsenal (1) | X | Sporting CP (2) |
| 5/13 | 13/4 | 6/1 |
The 1X2 is one of the most popular wagers in football betting. This bet gives three options:
- 1: Home team (Arsenal ) wins
- X: Draw
- 2: Away team (Sporting CP) wins
As per the latest Arsenal vs Sporting CP betting odds, the odds are 5/13 for Arsenal, 13/4 for a draw, and 6/1 for Sporting CP. In fractional odds, the numerator represents the profit, and the denominator tells you the corresponding bet amount. So, if you correctly predict Arsenal’s win at 5/13 odds, you stand to profit £5 for every £13 wagered. Similarly, if your bet on Sporting CP is successful, you will profit £6 for every pound. Correctly predicting a draw with 13/4 odds will pay £13 for every £4.
Double Chance
| Arsenal or Draw | Arsenal or Sporting CP | Draw or Sporting CP |
| 1/10 | 3/17 | 6/4 |
Both teams have played four head-to-head UEFA matches against each other: Arsenal won one, and the remaining three ended in a draw. Neither team seems to have an edge over the other in the head-to-head results. So, if you are not sure which outcome to back, try the Double Chance market.
Bettors have a higher probability of winning in the Double Chance market compared to 1X2. This is because this market gives the option to bet on two outcomes in the same match, instead of one. You can choose:
- 1X: Arsenal wins, or the match draws.
- 12: Either the Gunners or Sporting CP wins.
- X2: The match draws, or Sporting CP wins.
This market is useful if both teams appear to be equally matched and you expect a tight contest. However, if you think one team is stronger in the fixture, opt for 1X2 instead for better returns on your bet. The odds in Double Chance are always low because of the high win probability.
Handicap Betting Odds
| Arsenal (-1.25) | Sporting CP (+1.25) |
| 20/23 | 4/5 |
| Arsenal (-0.25) | Sporting CP (+0.25) |
| 4/15 | 5/2 |
| Arsenal (-2.75) | Sporting CP (+2.75) |
| 15/4 | 2/13 |
Handicap is a useful bet when one team appears to be clearly stronger. On our betting page, all available handicaps are negative for Arsenal and positive for Sporting CP. This means Arsenal can be considered stronger in this fixture. In this scenario, if you want to bet on Sporting CP, give them a head start or a positive handicap.
For example, if you award a +1 handicap to Sporting CP, one point will be added to their final goal count, and one point will be subtracted from Arsenal. So, a final score of 1–0 will be adjusted as 0–1 after applying the handicap. With this adjusted score, bets on the Lisbon team win even if they lose the match.
The betting line for this fixture can be adjusted between -0.25 and -2.75 for the Gunners. However, it is essential to consider the goal margin when selecting a handicap. Here’s a quick guide on how the goal margin varies with different handicaps:
- Arsenal (-02.5)/ Sporting CP (+0.25): This gives an advantage to Lisbon in case of a draw. However, in a draw, a 0.25 settles as a half-stake win based on the odds and a half-stake refund. If Lisbon wins, your stake fully wins.
- Arsenal (-1.25)/ Sporting CP (+1.25): Bets on Sporting Lisbon win if they win, draw, or lose by two goals. For example, a score of 2–0 will be adjusted as 0.75–1.25. Arsenal will be able to overcome the gap with a three-goal margin win (3–0 becomes 1.75–1.25).
- Arsenal (-2.75)/ Sporting CP (+2.75): Sporting CP gets a massive lead of five goals with this handicap as a score of 5–0 will be adjusted as 2.25–2.75. Arsenal needs to win with a six-goal margin to overcome the handicap.

Both Teams to Score (BTTS Odds)
| Yes | No |
| 1/1 | 8/11 |
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) is a safe bet for cautious bettors because it considers only a small aspect of the game: whether both teams will score during the match or not.
There are two possible ways to bet on this market:
- BTTS Yes: This bet wins if both teams score at least once. The final score should be at least 1–1 or higher.
- BTTS No: “No” bets win if one or both teams fail to score. For example, scores such as 0–0, 1–0, or 0–2 are all winners in this market.
When analyzing the Arsenal vs Sporting CP odds in this market, consider their clean sheet record in the last 10 matches. A clean sheet is when the opposition team fails to score any goals. This indicates a strong defense, and a higher chance of BTTS “No” bets winning. Sporting CP kept five clean sheets in their last 10 matches, while Arsenal kept four.
Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds
| Over 2.5 | Under 2.5 |
| 20/27 | 20/21 |
Predict whether the total number of goals scored in Wednesday’s match will go over or under your chosen betting line. For example, if you bet on Over 2.5 goals, the total number of goals must be at least three or higher for your bet to win. It doesn’t matter which team scores the goals; only the combined total counts. So any combination of results like 0–3, 2–1, 1–2, etc, will win.
On the other hand, if you bet on Under 2.5 goals, the match should produce two or fewer goals in total. Scores such as 0–2, 1–0, 0–0, or 1–1 will win in this bet.
In their last ten matches, Arsenal averaged 1.6 goals per game, while Sporting CP averaged 2.3. That gives a combined average of 3.9 goals per match, which is well above the 2.5 betting line. Use this data when looking at the Arsenal vs Sporting CP odds in this market.
Correct Score Odds
| Final Score | Arsenal vs Sporting CP Odds |
| 0-0 | 12/1 |
| 1-0 | 16/3 |
| 1-1 | 15/2 |
| 0-1 | 16/1 |
| 2-0 | 16/3 |
| 2-2 | 20/1 |
| 0-2 | 45/1 |
This is a high-paying market. However, bettors should note that the odds and probability are inversely related in betting. The higher the odds, the lower the probability of the outcome. Predicting the correct score can be risky as it involves guessing and a fair bit of luck. Minimize your risk by betting only small amounts here.
