Sevilla started well this season, but after the starting two victories in their domestic competition, they lost 4 matches in a row. I must say that they did not played that bad. They were playing their game but the luck wasn’t on their side. They finally beat poor Levante in the last round which will give a bit higher self-confidence for this match. They also beat Slavia Prague in Champions League and they need to beat Steaua, in order to keep their favorite position for the second place. Sevilla has big injury troubles: Kone and Duda are injured and Dani Alves and Boulahrouz are in doubt for this match.

Steaua lost previous two matches in the group and they are searching for the first point here in Sevilla. They are very serious of trying to make Sevilla’s day harder. They postponed the match in the domestic championship in order to be rested for this big match for them. But they are having some injury troubles which will make their try to take at least a point even harder. The long-term defensive absences Radoi and Ghionea and midfielder Plesan are still out.

Sevilla beat Steaua twice last season in UEFA Cup and despite the squad troubles that they have, I believe in their win. As Sevilla’s coach Ramos said, they will search for early goal or two, like in the match against Slavia Prague and then to bring steady the match to its end. I believe in this home/home bet more because Sevilla has very tough schedule in their domestic competition playing against Valencia next weekend and then with Atletico and Real Madrid. I believe that coach Ramos want to decide the match as earlier as possible in order to have his players easier game and to keep their strengths for the upcoming matches. I know that Steaua will try to defend as not let an early goal to the hosts, but with their defensive absences and pretty strong offensive line of Sevilla, I can see this outcome.
