Analysis

Ian Dennis, BBC Radio 5 Live senior football reporter

The draw has been very kind to the two English teams and both should be very happy.

Arsenal have won all three previous encounters against Porto, although they have never won at the Estadio do Dragao.

City played Danish champions Copenhagen in the group stage last season, drawing 0-0 in Denmark but winning handsomely 5-0 at home.
