Wolverhampton-Sevilla is a match valid for the quarter-finals of the Europa League and is played on Tuesday at 21 in Duisburg: statistics, insights, probable formations, and predictions.
Wolverhampton started their adventure in the 2019-2020 Europa League even over a year ago, in the preliminary rounds. Now, after a very long journey, he is preparing to play an eagerly awaited quarter-final against Sevilla, scheduled at the MSV Arena in Duisburg.
Within a few seasons, the Wolves have abandoned the second series of English football, have become protagonists in the Premier League, and have acquired great credibility also on an international level. A sensational growth, which took place above all thanks to important investments in the market and the excellent work of Nuno Espirito Santo, a good coach.
Sevilla has a long and important tradition and is used to raging in the Europa League, a competition they have won five times between 2006 and 2016. Last Thursday, they confirmed their feeling with this event and won 2-0 on Roma, showing off a convincing performance.
Currently led by Julen Lopetegui on the bench, Sevilla has just finished fourth in La Liga, so they already have a guaranteed place in the next Champions League. His purposeful 4-3-3 especially exalts Lucas Ocampos, who acts as a winger: the former Genoa and Milan player has never particularly shone in Italy, while in Spain he was able to make a big leap in quality.
This time, however, Jesus Navas and his teammates risk not finding huge spaces. Espirito Santo – struggling with the disqualification of Daniel Podence and Jonny’s physical problems – usually alternates two game systems: for the match against Sevilla, he seems willing to focus on a compact 3-5-2 and not on a more unscrupulous 3 -4-3, being aware of the offensive shock force available to Lopetegui, who will have to do without only Nemanja Gudelj, positive for COVID-19.
Overall, Wolverhampton – understandably tired, having played so many games this season – appear slightly underdog.
The overall goals will likely be no more than three. Sevilla should at least come out undefeated from regular time.
WOLVERHAMPTON (3-5-2): Rui Patricio; Boly, Coady, Saiss; Doherty, Dendoncker, Moutinho, Neves, Vinagre; Jimenez, Jota.
SEVILLA (4-3-3): Vaclik; Navas, Koundé, Diego Carlos, Reguilon; Banega, Fernando, Jordan; Ocampos, De Jong, Munir.
We don’t have many uncertainties, the forces of Wolves and Sevilla will have a huge tendency to cancel each other, in a battle for possession of the shared ball, very disputed and in which none of the emblems should be able to dominate. Draw!
