Sevilla preview
Many years have passed since Sevilla had a sporting crisis of this magnitude: they are at the bottom of Group G of the Champions League, after a 4-0 home defeat against Manchester City and a goalless draw in Denmark against Copenhagen.
In the Spanish league, things are no better: they are in 16th place and winning only one game out of seven played. That is pepople are talking about the departure of their coach, Julen Lopetegui, and that the Argentine Jorge Sampaoli, who managed Nervión during the 2016/2017 season, would return to the bench.
Absences: Jesús Corona, Óliver Torres (suspension).
Doubts: Marcāo, Karim Rekik.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Bono; José Ángel Carmona, Nianzou Kouassi, Kike Salas, Alex Telles; Nemanja Gudelj, Thomas Delaney, Ivan Rakitić; Érik Lamela, Kasper Dolberg, Isco.
Borussia Dortmund preview
Borussia Dortmund has achieved logical results so far in the Champions League: a convincing 3-0 win in Germany against Copenhagen and a decent 1-2 loss to Manchester City away. It is, at first sight, the candidate to accompany the English team to the round of 16.
In the Bundesliga, the team coached by Edin Terzic is in fourth place, albeit with a mixed performance: in eight games, they won five and lost three. What’s more, they are coming off a 3-2 loss to Cologne.
Absences: Mahmoud Dahoud, Mateu Morey, Gergor Kobel, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, Marco Reus, Marius Wolf, Sébastien Haller.
Doubts: Mats Hummels, Giovanni Reyna.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Alexander Meyer; Thomas Meunier, Niklas Süle, Nico Schlotterbeck, Raphael Guerreiro; Jude Bellingham, Salih Özcan; Karim Adeyemi, Julian Brandt, Donyell Malen; Anthony Modeste.
JefeBet Prediction
Sevilla’s mood is at rock bottom, so a change of leadership is urgently needed. Borussia is a team that looks more balanced and can play with the desperation of the Spaniards, who also have the impatience of their fans against them. For all these reasons, at JefeBet we believe that for this Sevilla vs Borussia Dortmund, the German team will win on rival territory by the minimum difference.
Prediction: Borussia Dortmund wins 2 to 1.
