Match preview
Sevilla will host Borussia Dortmund in Group G on Wednesday night in search of their first Champions League victory of the season.
It has been an extremely disappointing start to the season for Sevilla, who have finished fourth in La Liga three seasons in a row under former Spain manager Julen Lopetegui.
Last time out, they lost 2-0 at home to Atletico Madrid on Saturday which ensured they dropped to 17th place in La Liga, having only won one of their seven league games so far.
After failing to beat Copenhagen away from home in a 0-0 draw before the international break, Sevilla is under significant pressure to beat Dortmund on Wednesday, or they will face an uphill battle to advance from the group.
Dortmund, meanwhile, lost 3-2 to FC Koln in the Bundesliga over the weekend. However, Edin Terzic’s men must quickly return to the Champions League, where they will realistically hope to finish second behind current table leaders Manchester City. To do so, Dortmund will have to avoid defeat at Sevilla.
