#2 Sevilla demonstrate their European pedigree
Champions of the Europa League in the last three years, Sevilla took the next step in their European quest when they qualified for the last 16 this season, and put up a sterling performance.
Set up in an unconventional formation, Jorge Sampaoli once again proved his tactical masterclass as it allowed the player to interchange their positions whilst still performing to their optimal. While the poor form of the Foxes made their task easier, Sevilla’s superiority isn’t to be denied as they held dominion over the visitors for much of the game, as they did against some top shouts of Europe this season.
The tie may not be in the bag yet, but Sevilla go to England next month with a slender yet crucial lead.
