Arsenal will hope to recover from a pair of devastating defeats as it faces Sporting Lisbon in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinal on Tuesday.
The Gunners had been chasing an unprecedented quadruple until their domestic cup dreams were demolished in painful fashion, the most recent loss being to second-division side Southampton in the FA Cup semifinals.

The north Londoners haven’t won a trophy since the 2020 FA Cup, and three consecutive runners-up finishes in the Premier League have raised doubts about their ability to finally land silverware.
