Bilbao: Team information, current form, absent
Bilbao lost with scandal the last stage, 0-1 at home against Real Madrid. The only goal was scored from the penalty spot, and the Basques were denied a fairly clear penalty kick. However, the VAR camera did not react, and Muniain was on the verge of a conflict with his opponents. Following the failure, the hosts remained on the 9th position in LaLiga, 3 points away from the Europa League. The end of the season is near, and today Bilbao faces an extremely difficult opponent.
- ABSENT: Alvarez (medical problems), Garcia (suspended)
- PROBABLE TEAM: Simon – Vesga, Nunez, Martinez, Berchiche – San Jose, Lopez – Williams, Sancet, Cordoba – Muniain.
Sevilla: Team information, current form, absent
Sevilla won very hard with Eibar the previous stage, score 1-0. The match lasted until the 100th minute, and Eibar was on the verge of a draw. The team hit the bar before the end, and goalkeeper Vaclik was seriously injured. With no changes left, Lopetegui equipped the Ocampos scorer, who had a saving intervention in the last seconds. It is a huge victory for today’s guests, who are getting closer to the Champions League. It seems that the Sevilla goalkeeper has been rebuilt and may appear again.
- ABSENT: Corchia (medical problems)
- PROBABLE TEAM: Vaclik – Navas, Gomez, Diego Carlos, Reguilon – Escudero – Suso, Jordan, Banega, Ocampos – De Jong.
