Team Focus: Sevilla

Sevilla finished second in the group and will face Leicester City in the next round.

Goalkeeper & Defence
Their defence was great as they managed to keep 5 clean-sheets in the Group stage. Sergio Rico (5.7) is the keeper and given Leicester City's form he is a very good option the next round as well. Sergio Escudero (6.0) is a great option at left-back, he also scored once this season, while Mariano (6.0) on the other flank is an excellent Fantasy pick as well. They play with 5 at the back most of the time, so Nicolas Pareja (4.6), Adil Rami (6.0) and Gabriel Mercado (5.2) are good picks at the centre of Sevilla's defence too.

Midfield
Steven N'Zonzi (6.0) has been great this season and is a good budget option for your Fantasy team. Vitolo (7.0) is a great pick as well and Samir Nasri (6.4) too. Other options are too risky as they do not have a sure place in the starting 11. Keep an eye on the new signing Stevan Jovetič, if he is classified as a midfielder he could be a great choice.

Attack
Luciano Vietto (6.9) is the top forward pick, he scored once and assisted once as well. Wish Ben Yedder scored twice but it is very unsure who the first choice striker is. Add new signing Jovetič to the mix and the situation is even more unclear.

Prediction
Sevilla is excellent this season in La Liga and the UCL as well. We believe they will be too strong for Leicester City and will progress to the Quarter Finals. Anything is possible and Sevilla will be a difficult opponent for any team. They are certainly capable of a big surprise.
