A late mistake in the first leg of their most recent semi-final will force the six-time champions, who have won 24 of their last 27 Europa League games at the Sanchez-Pizjuan, to repeat themselves this week.
Youssef En-Nesyri’s first-half goal gave Sevilla the lead at the Allianz Stadium, but they let it go right before the final whistle when Federico Gatti, an unlikely Juventus hero, nodded in a close-range equalise with 96 minutes remaining. As a result, in their five continental encounters, the Spanish team has only triumphed once.
Juventus is currently in second place in Serie A and has had a solid start to the year. The Bianconeri easily defeated Cremonense by a score of 2-0 in their previous match, and they will want to repeat that feat this week.
On the other hand, Sevilla, who had a rocky start to the season, are currently in 10th place in the La Liga standings. The Andalusian team will be optimistic going into this match after defeating Real Valladolid by a commanding 3-0 score over the weekend.
