Sevilla vs. Manchester United Prediction on April 20, 2023

Match info

The rematches of the quarterfinals of the men’s football 2022-23 UEFA Europa League are on the schedule this week. Let’s deal with an encounter between Sevilla FC and Manchester United F.C., which will be played at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán on Thursday, April 20, at 9:00 PM local time.

Meeting statistics

So, Manchester United’s strategy to go on the rematch worry-free didn’t work out as expected! Old demons reared their head when the “Red Devils“ scored twice in the first half to place them closer to the semifinals. Due to their own goals, then Raphaël Varane’s and Lisandro Martínez’s injuries, and Bruno Fernandes’ absence for this second leg, the English team has a lot to prove in the upcoming match.

Sevilla, on the other hand, will now relish the opportunity to add to United’s suffering. If the Spanish side defeats them at home with the help of the crowd and a shaky rival’s roster, it won’t be as shocking a result as in the first leg. Sevilla will be excited about the opportunity to deal Manchester United another European knockout blow, so the Old Trafford team needs to dig deep and summon all of its grit and strength to match them.

Sevilla don’t have many injury concerns, and following a convincing 2-0 victory against Valencia on the road in La Liga, they’ve also found their domestic form. Only Pape Gueye is disqualified since he hasn’t signed up for the Europa League. Otherwise, Sevilla has a sufficient pool of players from whom to choose. Expect Yassine Bounou “Bono“ to replace Marko Dmitrović in goal for Sevilla.

In contrast, Manchester United is at the other end of the scale in terms of injury concerns, but they are still the favorites for the match as per online sportsbooks with the best betting bonuses in 2023. The weekend saw a further reduction in the roster after Marcel Sabitzer withdrew from the Nottingham Forest encounter owing to an injury sustained during the warmup. Additionally suffering from an injury, Tyrell Malacia forced Erik Ten Hag to start Diogo Dalot at LB. Varane and Martínez, the team's first-choice CBs, have been absent frequently. Due to the paucity of defensive options, the health of Marcus Rashford and Luke Shaw should be closely monitored. After his injury return, Ten Hag might decide against putting Anthony Martial in for a third straight start in a week. Wout Weghorst should take his place and start, even though Martial is itching to contribute from the bench. Christian Eriksen’s situation should be similar, giving Fred a head start.

Match analytics

In the first leg, Manchester United had a chance to end this face-off. However, that was wasted in extraordinary ways. This match has evolved into a legitimate contest rather than the one-sided contest many anticipated when it was made, despite the resilience Ten Hag’s team has displayed this season in the face of adversity.

The potential for an upset and the support of their home crowd will energize Sevilla. To calm the fans, United will need to get off to a quick and powerful start. Sevilla’s early goal might make it a difficult night for United, who begin as the favorites for this, nevertheless, due to their capacity to perform well under duress and respond to setbacks.

We recommend betting on both teams to score & total goals over 2.5 at odds of 2.05 on Rivalo.
