Champions League Sevilla – Manchester United 21.02.2018

Sevilla – Manchester United – Champions League

Sevilla has set out to take the lead two weeks ago, winning the lead in the three games that have been played, but they all took place in La Liga, the 5th place championship , with 39 points. The Andalusian tournament in the Champions League this year was a good one, finishing second in Group E with 9 points, three lesser times than Liverpool. However, in the meantime they have changed their coach, this being the first match with Vincenzo Montella at the team squad, in a match of the European competitions. On the other hand, he did not even have the time to train, he was called a month and a half, while his team played 12 matches, marking at least one goal each time, but in domestic competitions.

Sevilla: Rico – Mercado; Kjaer Lenglet; Escudero – Pizarro; N’Zonzi – Sarabia; Vazquez; Navas – Muriel

Manchester United comes from a stronger championship, having opponents he can meet in the Champions League finals anytime, given that all of England’s qualifying teams have finished unbeaten after a tour of the best and here we do not include Chelsea, who plays Tuesday night. “Red Devils” had more time to prepare this game, given that at the end of last week they beat Huddersfield 2-0 in a FA Cup game where less used players were used. With a lot of experience, Manchester United has reached this stage of the most important inter-club competition as the Group A leader. Moreover, Mourinho is the advantage that the English have in front of Sevilla, with the Portuguese coach having seven wins and a defeat as long as he trained in the peninsula. Still, the “devils” have real problems with the teams in Spain, in front of which they have a negative balance, the situation becoming somewhat stable in the last such disputes. Wednesday is the 50th straight match against teams in Spain with 13 wins, 20 draws and 16 other matches won by the Iberian bands.

Manchester United: Gea – Valencia; Bailly; Smalling; Young – Matic; Pogba – Mata; Lingard; Sanchez – Lukaku

Sevilla – Manchester United – Champions League Predictions

It is the first time the two meet in an official match, and if the situation remains the same as in their last games, I expect to see a playful game with gate phases. The two are also recognized as taking advantage of the opportunities they have, having a game based on flanking, and that’s what makes me believe that in the Wednesday match we can have at least ten corners.
