Sevilla and Chelsea meet in a Group E match of the UEFA Champions League. The match will be played on Wednesday, at 20:00, at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.
Julen Lopetegui’s team is in excellent shape before the dispute with Chelsea. FC Sevilla appears in this duel after a series of five victories in a row, obtained in all competitions. In the Champions League, all three victories of the Iberians were obtained at a difference of exactly one goal, 1-0 with Rennes and 3-2 and 2-1 with Krasnodar.
On the other hand, Chelsea is undefeated in the last 11 matches played in all competitions. Also, between October 28 and November 24, Frank Lampard’s band recorded six victories out of as many as possible. This positive series was interrupted this weekend, in the championship, where Chelsea drew at home with Tottenham, score 0-0.
Like the tour match, the one at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan is expected to be extremely balanced. The two teams have already obtained qualification in the next round of the Champions League, and the only stake remains the first position of group E. Both teams have ten points accumulated in the first four stages of the group, and this shows the balance between Sevilla and Chelsea. . Thus, we choose to bet on an equal result, recorded at the break or at the end of the 90 minutes.
