Sevilla vs Manchester City prediction, preview, team news and more

Manchester City get their UEFA Champions League campaign underway this week as they lock horns with Sevilla at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Tuesday. Pep Guardiola's side has been impressive this season and will want to win this game.

Sevilla are currently in 16th place in the La Liga standings and have been in poor form this season. The Andalusian outfit suffered a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Barcelona over the weekend and cannot afford another debacle in this match.

Manchester City, on the other hand, are in second place in the Premier League table at the moment and have been in impressive form so far. The Cityzens were held to a disappointing 1-1 draw in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this week.

Sevilla vs Manchester City Head-to-Head

Manchester City have an impressive record against Sevilla and have won the two matches that have been played between the two sides. Sevilla have yet to defeat Manchester City in an official fixture and will look to create history on Tuesday.

The previous meeting between the two teams took place in 2015 and ended in a 3-1 victory for Manchester City. Sevilla were thoroughly outplayed on the day and face another uphill battle this week.

During his time here, he has had the privilege of covering a press meeting during the collaboration between his favorite club Bengaluru FC and Sevilla, where he got a chance to interact with Sevilla president Jose Castro and explore the grassroots development in his city.

Aditya started following the sport after being dazzled by Ronaldinho’s silky feet at the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He is a Barcelona fan and unsurprisingly, his favorite manager and players are Pep Guardiola and Andres Iniesta respectively. He admires the latter for his superhuman talent and his off-pitch demeanor, and his winning goal in Spain’s 2010 World Cup final win over the Netherlands left a lasting impact on Aditya.

The match-preview specialist believes that his ongoing five-year stint at Sportskeeda has given him the ability to identify the distinct line between emotional and fact-based articles, which separates him from other journalists. For him, fact-checking is the most integral part of his writing process and he only relies on authentic platforms for data.
