Sevilla and Roma get a break from their league challenge to fight for a possible trophy in this Europa League 8th Finals fixture.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
It's quite the trip for Roma when visiting Sevilla as the cities are 2300 kilometers apart.
Sevilla form and stats
Sevilla participated in Europa League the last season, where they reached the 8th finals and lost against Slavia Praha.When playing at home in the La Liga, Sevilla have managed 10 wins, 7 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 19 games. On the other hand, in the Europa League, Sevilla has performed like this (both home and away): 5 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. The Sevilla fans aren't used to losing league-games here at Schauinsland-Reisen-Arena and will expect new points from this game. Sevilla has played eleven games in a row here without a defeat. Sevilla has a nice streak going on as they have played 15 consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Celta de Vigo defeat 178 days ago.
Sevilla are confident in defense, having played 332 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.
Sevilla's last game was hosting Valencia and winning 1-0. Before that, Sevilla played out a La Liga draw 0-0 when visiting Real Sociedad.
Sevilla has scored 26 league goals at home this season, in 19 matches. Sevilla are not conceding a lot of goals here at Schauinsland-Reisen-Arena in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 14 from 19 matches.
Roma form and stats
Roma was sent out of Champions League in the 8th finals last season, when Porto turned out to be too strong.The story so far for the visiting team on their Serie A travels is 11 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats. The mentioned statistics is only from the league, looking at the Europa League stats, they have 3 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss both home and away. Long winning streaks away are a rare occurrence in football, which only makes Roma's record of four away victories in a row even more impressive. They last lost points away in the Napoli game. The fact that Roma have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting.
Two travels in a row for Roma, whose manager P. Rodrigues Fonseca could celebrate last time after the Serie A win against Juventus. Before that one, a nice away victory 3-2 at Torino.
With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Roma are regular goalscorers on their travels. As opposed to that, Roma have seen the ball go into their own net 24 times on the road.
