Sevilla continues to chase glory in their cherished competition, the UEFA Europa League, even as this season tests them more than ever. The quarterfinals pit the Andalusian side against heavy favorites Manchester United, a formidable hurdle in their bid to lift the trophy and keep the dream alive in a challenging campaign.
Follow live updates for Manchester United vs. Sevilla in the Europa League 2022-2023 as the ties unfold.
The first leg kicks off at Old Trafford, a grand stage where new Sevilla coach Jose Luis Mendilibar will oversee his European debut with the club. It is notable that United have faced Sevilla multiple times in recent years, and the meetings have generally favored Sevilla, who approach this clash with a sense of optimism built on recent familiarity and success against their opponents.
There are options to watch the Europa League in Spain through paid services, with occasional matches available for free viewing on select platforms, though access may vary by day.
Historically, Manchester United has yet to beat Sevilla in European competition, with a 0-0 draw and a 1-2 loss in past encounters. A memorable 2017-18 Champions League round of 16, featuring a brace by Ben Yedder, and a dramatic 2020 Europa League semi-final in which goals from Suso and Luuk de Jong, plus standout saves from Bono, shaped the narrative of their rivalry.
One notable strategic update is the return of the Moroccan goalkeeper who could become a key element for Mendilibar, especially after Dmitrovic started Mendilibar’s first two matches. The Basque coach has shored up defense, yet the midfield presents fresh challenges, with Pape Gueye not registered for continental competition and Ivan Rakitic sidelined by injury. Marcus Rashford is also expected to miss the home side’s lineup, potentially shifting tactical balances for United.
