Our prediction for this Champions League match:
Sevilla and Borussia Dortmund go head to head at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Wednesday’s program. Los Sevillanos failed to turn their dominance into victory in a goalless draw with Copenhagen, and, no doubt, they are desperate to record their first win of the process in round 3. Both Marcao and Corona are out of contention with injuries for the home side.
The Bundesliga outfit, on the other hand, produced a fine display against Man City, but the Citizens eventually picked up all three points from the match. Sevilla and Borussia Dortmund seem to be evenly matched at the moment, and, taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Dortmund’s injury list is pretty long, including the likes of Marco Reus, Mahmoud Dahoud, Youssoufa Moukoko, and Giovanni Reyna, to name just a few.
Highlighted Player (Isco):
Isco is a Spanish midfielder who was born on 21 April, 1992. The attacking midfielder is capable of playing as a central midfielder as well and he is well known for his brilliant passing. Isco played for Malaga from 2011 to 2013 and he made it to the Champions League quarter-finals with los Boquerones in the 2012/2013 season.
In the summer of 2013 he signed a deal with Real Madrid and it has to be noted that he scored eight goals in 32 league appearances for the capital club. Isco won two Champions League trophies with Real Madrid (2013/2014, 2015/2016) and he clinched two UEFA Super Cup trophies (2014, 2016) with the club as well. Speaking of his individual careers, the Real Madrid midfielder was named La Liga Breakthrough Player in 2012.
Isco represented Spain U21 at the 2013 European Championship finals and it has to be noted that La Roja won the trophy at the tournament in Israel. Spain defeated Italy in the title game.
Highlighted Team (Borussia Dortmund):
1909 by eighteen footballers from Dortmund. Die Schwarzgelben (The Black and Yellows) play their home games at Signal Iduna Park, but the stadium’s original name is Westfalenstadion. The capacity of Borussia’s home ground is 81,539 and it has to be noted that the stadium was opened in 1974. BVB have the highest average attendance in the world of football.
Borussia Dortmund have won eight Bundesliga trophies, while clinching the German Cup title three times.
However, the club’s biggest success came in 1997 when they outplayed Juventus in the Champions League final. Karl-Heinz Riedle scored a brace for BVB in the 3-1 win over Juve, with Lars Ricken finding the net in the title game as well. Borussia’s biggest rivals are Schalke 04 and the two teams square off against each other in the Revierderby.
