Sevilla host Manchester United in the first leg of their Champions League last sixteen tie. It's been a bumpy road so far the Spanish side who finished second behind Liverpool in the group stages. They were only three points adrift of the English team but it should have been more after Liverpool let slip a 3-0 lead when playing in Spain. Sevilla conceded 12 goals in their six group games including a terrible 5-1 away defeat at Spartak Moscow. Their dodgy defence has already conceded 35 goals in La Liga this season, which is four more than they have managed to put past their opponents. That kind of defence will have to improve against the likes of Lukaku and Sanchez. Manchester United topped their group by three points from Basel who they lost to away from home. They did manage to win their other two games though against CSKA Moscow and Benfica so an away win here is definitely on the cards.  They do have the occasional off-day on their travels but Mourinho will have his side pumped up for this one and can leave Spain with a lead.
