Sevilla’s unbeaten run stretching across their last five matches has seen them steadily erase the deficit refraining them from making an advent into the top 4.
With a win for Sevilla today not only placing them on the cusp of the Champions League spots but also seeing them move above Real Sociedad in the points tally, the club is set to treat this as a must win encounter.

Fantasy Picks
Goal-Keeper
Real Sociedad’s Alex Remiro has played a crucial hand in halting his side’s three match losing spree. The player has ended up letting in just the one goal in his last two matches to see him be an instant selection for us.
Defenders
Pulling off three cleansheets in their last five matches, Sevilla are once again doing what they are traditionally revered for. A wordclass defensive unit, it was only prudent for us to opt for all of Jules Kounde, Diego Carlos and three assist man Jesus Navas from the club.
The opposition will meanwhile see us indulge in the services of Robin Le Normand owing to the player’s ability to dispel attacking plays.
Midfielders
The two assists for Joan Jordan see him line up for us from Sevilla. Elsewhere, the visiting team will see us rope in the worldclass Portu owing to the five goals and three assists he has.
He’s joined by Mikel Merino, a versatile player who can go berserk in both attack and defence.
Strikers
The club’s leading scorer with a staggering 7 goals and 3 assists in his kitty, Mikel Oyarzabal completes the set of picks from the club. Sevilla will also see top scorer with the five goals, Youssef En-Nesyri line up for us with Lucas Ocampos slotting in next to him.
Captain And Vice-Captain
His three goals and three assists make Lucas our captain while Mikel is the vice-captain.
