Sevilla vs Salzburg: Prediction and Betting Tips

Sevilla for a similar start as La Liga

Sevilla will have the co-honor to raise the curtains on the UCL  2021/22 season. Certainly, the Spanish side excelled under the bright lights as they lost just three of their 21 first European competitions matches. Moreover, losing just once in their last nine UCL group stage matches, confidence will be high in the locker room. 

History also is on coach Lopetegui’s side. Notably, La Nervionenses advanced from five of their last six group stage appearances to the knockout stages. Also, the H2H favors Sevilla as they beat Salzburg in their only previous meeting 2-0 in the 2008/9 Uefa Cup. Seven points from three matches in the La Liga new term shows that Sevilla are in a good form.

Sevilla Key points

• Sevilla scored in all of their last three competitive games 
• Lopetegui’s team conceded just one goal in three matches
• Twice Sevilla failed to score in their last ten matches 

Salzburg aim to advance to the knockout stages 

 Austrian champions Salzburg are flying high with a 100% start to their Admiral Bundesliga campaign with seven straight wins. In addition, the Red Bulls won 15 matches in all competitions. However, the fact that they won just two of their last UCL and UEL matches, raises concerns. In fact, coach Jaissle’s team has been dominating the domestic scene but suffered against Europe’s best.
