Erling Haaland will look to continue his incredible scoring run in the UEFA Champions League when Borussia Dortmund travel to Sevilla for the first leg of their last-16 tie on Wednesday. Read our reasons for Sevilla vs Dortmund prediction and betting tips.
UEFA Europa League holders Sevilla reached the Champions League knockout rounds for the first time since 2017/18 by finishing second behind Chelsea in Group E, picking up 13 points from their six matches - though their last game at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan ended in their heaviest home European defeat at the hands of the English club (0-4). They also came away from their most recent outing against German opposition empty-ended, losing the UEFA Super Cup 2-1 to Bayern Munich - their third loss in four in meetings with Bundesliga clubs.
Despite a nine-match winning run in all competitions, Julen Lopetegui’s side is fourth in La Liga, nine points adrift of leaders Atletico Madrid. Karim Rekik, Sergio Escudero, Ivan Rakitic, and Luuk de Jong are all former Bundesliga players, but it’s Moroccan forward Youssef En-Nesyri who tops the club scoring charts with 17 goals in 33 appearances so far this term. A goal every 104 minutes is not to be sniffed at, even if it is still some way short of Haaland’s ruthless 84-minute average.
Sevilla: Bounou - Navas (c), Kounde, Carlos, Escudero - Jordan, Fernando, Rakitic - Suso, De Jong, Munir
Out: -
Doubtful: Acuna (thigh), Ocampos (ankle), Rodriguez (muscular)
Coach: Julen Lopetegui
Haaland scored six goals in the first four matches of Dortmund's Group F-topping campaign, before missing the final two through injury. The 20-year-old is already BVB's record scorer in the competition, while no player Europe-wide has reached 16 career Champions League goals in fewer games than Haaland's 12. Dortmund's apex-predator No.9 was on target for the 23rd time in as many competitive matches at the weekend and also had a couple ruled out for offside as the Black-Yellows fought back to draw 2-2 with Hoffenheim.
Although winless in two in the league, Edin Terzic's side - sixth in the current Bundesliga standings - are unbeaten in their last five in the Champions League, recording four wins and one draw. Jadon Sancho put away his fifth goal of the calendar year on Saturday from a third successive starting position on the left-hand side of the Dortmund attack. Captain Marco Reus, who dropped to the bench, should be recalled at the expense of Julian Brandt, while Emre Can is expected to continue at right-back in the absence of Thomas Meunier.
Dortmund: Hitz - Morey, Akanji, Hummels, Guerreiro - Can, Delaney - Sancho, Reus (c), Reyna - Haaland
Out: Meunier (knee), Piszczek (muscular), Schmelzer (knee), Witsel (Achilles tendon), Zagadou (hamstring)
Doubtful: Bürki (shoulder), Hazard (thigh)
Coach: Edin Terzic

Dortmund has won five of eight two-legged ties against La Liga opposition. BVB beat current La Liga leaders Atleti - the last team to beat Sevilla - 4-0 in the 2018/19 groups. Despite all that, Sevilla is the favorite to win the first leg, they have a more experienced team and they are full of confidence. The home win is our most preferable betting option.
So, our final Sevilla vs Dortmund Prediction is Sevilla to win.

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
