Sevilla FC vs APOEL FC - 03/10/2019
3351
Sevilla have become Europa League royalty in recent years, winning the competition on five occasions in the last 13 years. The Andalusians have become synonymous with the competition.
Julen Lopetegui’s side has also made a bright start to their Europa League campaign this season by swatting away Qarabag 3-0 on matchday one.
The Andalusians will look to make it two wins out of two in the competition when they host APOEL at the Sanchez Pizjuan on Thursday night.
Sevilla are unbeaten in six Europa League games in 90 minutes, recording four victories in the process. However, last season the Spanish side suffered an extra-time last-16 defeat against Slavia Prague.
The Andalusian team have a formidable recent home record in the Europa League, as they are unbeaten in 20 outings. Sevilla have also won 17 of those home games.
The Spanish team have been prolific at the Sanchez Pizjuan in the Europa League of late, scoring at least two goals in their last six outings in the competition. In fact, the visitors have scored at least twice in 13 of their last 15 home matches in the Europa League.
APOEL start this season in the Champions League preliminary rounds but suffered a 2-0 aggregate defeat against Ajax in the play-offs. The Cypriot team have a mixed recent record in the Europa League. In fact, a recent record of just three wins in their last nine matches in this competition is not great.
They kicked off the group stages with a 3-4 home defeat against F91 Dudelange of Luxembourg.
The visitors have a poor recent away record in the Europa League, having failed to win in seven matches on their travels in this competition, suffering five defeats in the process.
Forebet predicts that Sevilla will record a victory in a high-scoring encounter to make it two wins out of two in Group A of the competition.
