#3 Sevilla vs Bayern Munich

Arsenal FC v FC Bayern Muenchen - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: Second Leg
Did Bayern Munich get lucky? Or can Sevilla overcome them?

Bayern Munich have the easiest draw according to most pundits in Europe but they are still up against a Sevilla side that knocked out Manchester United, although the Red Devils were abysmal over the two legs which made Sevilla's job a little easier.

For a team of Bayern Munich's stature, this should be a fairly straightforward tie over the two legs. Ever since they sacked Carlo Ancelotti earlier in the season and got Jupp Heynckes out of retirement they look rejuvenated.

At the start of the season, they were in shambles but Heynckes seems to have turned things around and as a result, Bayern have started playing the attacking brand of football all fans expect from them.

With stars like Robert Lewandowski, Arjen Robben, James Rodriguez, and David Alaba, they should have more than enough firepower to dispatch Sevilla without too much trouble.

On the other hand, the Sevilla side that Bayern are up against is bound to be full of confidence after knocking out a team with Manchester United's history. They could give Bayern a run for their money although at this moment, that looks rather highly unlikely.

Their performances against United over two legs act as evidence that they will certainly try as hard as they can and will do everything in their hands to stifle Bayern. Sevilla do have the experience of playing continental football as they won 3 consecutive UEFA Europa League titles in 2014, 2015 and 2016, becoming the first team to do so.

Prediction:

Bayern Munich to go through to the semi-finals with an aggregate scoreline of 4-0.
