THE PREDICTION
A last gasp comeback from Sporting Cristal saw them stun Arsenal by turning around a one-goal deficit to secure a 2-1 victory in the first leg of this tie. It is yet to be determined how such a dramatic turnaround will affect Arsenal, who must regroup and regather themselves ahead of this second leg. With an away goal in their back pocket, a single goal for Arsenal would see them advance and Sporting Cristal will know this, therefore the hosts are expected to try and take the game to the visitors in a bid to extend their aggregate lead. When taking this into account, an entertaining affair looks in prospect. The first leg saw over 2.5 goals scored and it would be no surprise if the same outcome was to occur here.
