Sevilla vs Manchester United

Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan is the venue as Sevilla and Manchester United go head-to-head in the return leg of their evenly-poised Europa League quarter-final tie after a goal-glutted 2-2 draw at Old Trafford.

A pair of own goals in the final ten minutes of the first-leg encounter last week saw Sevilla cancel out a 2-0 halftime deficit and boost their hopes of landing a record-extending seventh Europa League title. That draw forms part of the club’s four-match unbeaten streak in all competitions under new manager Jose Luis Mendilibar, bookended by a crucial 2-0 La Liga win at Valencia last weekend. Having steered eight points clear of the drop zone, ‘Los Rojiblancos’ are now confident of maintaining their 100% unbeaten H2H ratio against Man Utd in Europe (W2, D2). Adding to their enthusiasm, the Spaniards have been relentless at the Pizjuan during springtime European fixtures this year, thumping PSV Eindhoven and Fenerbahce 3-0 and 2-0, respectively.

Meanwhile, visiting Man Utd recovered from a disappointing night at Old Trafford with a 2-0 win at Premier League minnows Nottingham Forest to consolidate their top-four pursuit in the domestic championship. However, Erik ten Hag’s men have their eyes set on a coveted European prize as they bid to defy a see-saw five-match form away from home (W2, D1, L2). The ‘Red Devils’ have only lost once in their last 12 Europa League knockout matches on hostile turf (W7, D4), going down 2-1 last 12 away UEFA Europa League knockout matches (W7 D4). Furthermore, they are unbeaten in ten consecutive European contests (W8, D2) since losing 1-0 to Sevilla’s fellow La Liga rivals Real Sociedad on the opening matchday, including three straight visits to Spain without losing (W2, D1).
