Arsenal beat Porto to finish in the EU top eight again after 14 years and could go straight to the final? Check the record. In the last five European knockout matches, Porto and the team were kicked out and eventually they could progress to the final, with the 'Golden Rule' in the ascendancy, the Arsenal should have operations.
Starting from the 2016/17 season, there is a law that a win in the UEFA knockout rounds must lead to the final. Zuyuntas "doubled" Porto in the last 16 of the UEFA Europa League in the 2016/17 season, and drove forward until the final, where they lost 1-4 at the feet of Real Madrid. Liverpool followed suit in 2017/18 and 2018/19, eliminating Porto from the UEFA Europa League for the second consecutive season, winning a title and a second place.
Another Premier League side, Chelsea, beat Porto in the last eight of the UEFA Europa League in 2020/21 to win the Cup, while last year's runners-up Inter Milan also knocked out Porto in the last 16, so a win in the final is guaranteed.
The only time Arsenal reached the UEFA Europa League final was in 2006, but they were defeated by Barcelona. The Arsenal are in great form this season, and with the blessing of Porto, they are expected to win the UEFA Europa League.
