Description: SEV Vs MUN Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Sevilla’s incredible winning run continues unabated with the side sitting on the cusp of making it into the summit clash.
Taking on Wolverhampton in the quarter-final of the Europa League, Sevilla found themselves up against their first real test in the competition this season. It was a clash which would determine if they were rightfully being hailed as potential champions-elect of the 2019-20 edition of the marquee league.
While the club was given a real score by Wolverhampton in the opening exchanges with Raul Jimenez stepping up to take an early penalty, the striker’s miss ended up handing a real reprieve to the Spanish side. And there was no looking back from there with the club pulling its socks up henceforth to ask Wolverhampton to take a walk in the tie.
Sevilla’s staunch defence was at the fore of their 1-0 win on the day with the side’s backline yet again stepping up for the club. Taking centrestage in their win, the club’s backline sees the side make an advent into today’s first semi-final as clear favourites to not only protect their unbeaten run since March but also make it into the showpiece summit clash.
SEV Vs MUN Dream11 Probable Winner
Manchester United might have managed to string together a winning spree in the competition but their 1-0 win against Copenhagen the last time around showed that the team’s current run means for little. Akin to the Premier League, the side has failed to up the ante when up infront of oppositions of note with the team needed an extra time penalty to emerge as winners against the Greek club.
Things will not be so fortuitous for them against Sevilla though today. The Spanish club has known to give the best clubs in the footballing fraternity cold feet and will met out the same treatment to Manchester United to advance from this one off tie.

Goal-Keeper
Yassine Bounou has been handed over a chance in the Europa League and the goal-keeper has more than reposed the faith earmarked in him. He emerged as the side’s match winner after keeping our Raul’s penalty the last time around to ensure Sevilla were able to control proceedings and come out of the fixture with a win.
Defenders
Wolverhampton were set to become the first club this season to finally test and rattle Sevilla’s renowned defence. However, the side was quick to dismiss all notions of them struggling to contain Wolverhampton with the side hardly according the Premier League side a glimpse into their goal.
Shunning out wave after wave of attack to make things cumbersome for the English club, Sevilla’s backline showed why its held in such high esteem. They have had little qualms in quashing attacks, a discourse which made it befitting to opt for a triad from the side today.
Along with their defensive attributes, Sergio Reguilon and Jesus Navas have provided unbridled support to the team in its attacking soirees as well. The fullback pairing is a must have pick for us along with CB Jules Kounde while Manchester United will see Brandon Williams become the first pick from the side.
Midfielders
Lucas Campos has now popped up with two match winning displays for the club. After an assist against AS Roma he scored the only goal of the match in the showdown against Wolverhampton to see him become a must have pick for us today.
He was Sevilla’s top assist provided in La Liga and Ever Banega has brought his form into the Europa League as well. With assists in both the encounters since the league’s restart, he’s once again proven his worth in the side’s midfield to see him form the partnership we are opting from the club.
CDM Joan Jordan links up with the duo to complete the triad of picks form the side. Elsewhere, this Europa League’s top scorer after scoring yet another penalty, Bruno Fernandes and his ability to dive and throw a fit on the field sees him be our pick from Manchester United.
Strikers
Manchester United’s top scorer in the tournament with the five goals to his name, Mason Greenwood will be our pick from the club for the upcoming tie. Anthony Martial follows him up with the four goals to see him be the second pick from the side, a partnership which will be quiessential to the team’s chances of salvaging a win today.
Captain And Vice-Captain
With a goal and assist in the last two encounters, Ocampos will slot his way into our side as the captain while Banega is the vice-captain.
