Sevilla had a rare away win in the first leg to put them in the driving seat in this tie. They haven't won a single away league game all season in La Liga and were defeated in all three of their Champions League ties. That took them back into the Europa League that they have won for the past two seasons and hadn't won any of their two away games at Molde and Basel before that win at Bilbao in the first leg of this tie after trailing 1-0. Home form for Sevilla is much better with wins over Borussia Monchengladbach and Juventus in the Champions League and two 3-0 wins since returning to this competition and they have 13 wins and two defeats in their last 15 La Liga home games. All of which makes this look a pretty difficult task for Bilbao if they want to reach the last four. They should be in the Europa League next season and still have an outside chance of qualifying for the Champions League. This is really tough for them though and away form isn't great with two losses in the last four away league matches. In the Europa League they have three wins and two defeats. I think Sevilla can continue their good home form and get the win here just as they did when beating them 2-0 at home in the league earlier this season.
