Sevilla vs Chelsea Prediction & Betting tips
A decision in the battle for group victory is looming in this game between Sevilla and Chelsea! Both have already qualified for the round of 16, but this game will be tackled seriously. It’s about money, about prestige, and about further building confidence.
Before the game Sevilla vs. Chelsea, the odds of the best bookmakers show that there is no real favorite in this game. And that is in line with the performances so far this season, both teams are on a similar level.
Both teams want to get a good result. Which team will succeed will be shown on Wednesday evening. The game at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan in Seville starts at 20:00 p.m.
Seville:
At the weekend, Sevilla won the league 1-0 at Huesca and improved to fifth. The Andalusian season has been going relatively well so far, coach Lopetegui’s team has not yet been able to get the most out of it. It is important, however, that the leap into the round of 16 of the Champions League was made early on.
The starting position before the game against Chelsea is clear: With a win, Sevilla are already group winners. That is the goal and most recently it looked very good for the Andalusians against English teams. Seven games in a row were not lost against teams from England.
Before the game Sevilla vs. Chelsea odds show that there is no big favorite in this game.
The form of the Andalusians is very good, the last five competitive games have all been won. We will now want to build on that. You need a good performance against Chelsea to win the game.
Overall, however, the Andalusians’ record in the Champions League is impressive. In 17 home games in a row in the group stage, Sevilla have scored at least once themselves. This season, Sevilla also have the third best defense in the Champions League.
At the moment the offensive is in better shape. The Andalusians have always scored in the last seven competitive games. That’s why before the game Sevilla vs. Chelsea our prediction that both teams will score at least once.
Offensive player Suso is not available due to an injury, Idrissi is injured and will not be able to play from the start. Otherwise, the hosts can draw on unlimited resources.
Chelsea:
Chelsea have been playing a decent season so far without the big mistakes. Against Liverpool they had to accept the only defeat of the season so far in the Premier League, but a total of four draws in the Premier League are still too many. This prevents an even better placement.
In the Champions League, the Blues are also on course and have the same starting position as Seville. A win would mean that after five match days, the group win is dry. Right now the Blues offensive is in good shape. Two or more goals were scored in six of the last seven competitive games.
Because the Blues’ offensive has recently become more efficient and is making progress, before the game Sevilla vs. Chelsea our tip that both teams will score at least one goal.
The guests would be group winners with a win, but they can probably live well with a draw. A 0-0 would mean that you stay ahead of Sevilla because of the better goal difference, every draw with goals would result in a direct comparison won due to the away goals.
Chelsea are still completely unbeaten away this season. In addition, for the first time since 2003/04, three away games in the Champions League could be won in a row. At the weekend, Premier League leaders Tottenham drew 0-0, so the form is right.
It is also very good news for coach Lampard that he can fall back on every player in his squad. This allows him a good rotation and this is currently essential given the game plan. For example, the German international Havertz could be on the field again from the start.
