The Bianconeri got the better of Freiburg in the previous round to progress to the last eight of the continental competition. However, they head into this fixture on the back of a 2-1 loss to Lazio in Serie A and Massimiliano Allegri will be looking for a positive response from his team.

The Old Lady will remain cautious as they have already been beaten two times by Sporting's rivals Benfica in the Champions League group stage which ultimately resulted in their premature exit from the competition.

Meanwhile, Sporting are unbeaten in their last 11 outings. They knocked out Premier League leaders Arsenal in the previous round and will look to stage another upset by taking down the Italian giants.

Barcelona loanee Francisco Trincao scored a hat-trick in their previous league match against Casa Pia and will be raring to score at least a couple on a European night.
