Sampaoli travels to the return of the eighth against the Turks with doubts surrounding Jordan and Nianzou, who were both hurt but part of the squad for the trip.
Sevilla continues to chase a dream in the UEFA Europa League. The Nervión club has used La Liga as a stabilizing force amid inconsistency and arrives at the second leg of the round of 16 against Fenerbahçe with a 2-0 advantage from the first leg at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán.

In terms of lineup, coach Jorge Sampaoli still faces defensive concerns as Marcao and Rekik remain sidelined and Nianzou picked up a knock after having to request a substitution in the previous match against Almería. Joan Jordán, who finished the game with discomfort against the Indálicos, is also a doubt and both players stay on the bench for now.
Second-half considerations
Sevilla take the field knowing they must overturn the 2-0 deficit from the first leg, a situation that has sparked debate about whether to rotate the squad. The discussion echoes the Sunday showdown against Getafe, a direct rival in the relegation scrap in La Liga.
Meanwhile, players who faced heavy punishment against Almería, such as Jesús Navas, are resting in a lineup that sees Fernando return, unable to play in the league due to a disciplinary suspension.

Sevilla has been plotting a comeback with a goal differential to overcome, depending on the tactical choices and available personnel. The coach will weigh the balance between pushing for resilience in defense and committing more players forward in search of an away goal that could swing the tie in their favor. The outcome will hinge on how well the squad can convert chances while maintaining shape against a dangerous opponent that holds a comfortable lead from the home leg.
