Teams from Nervión faced a knockout scenario where elimination would hinge on an extraordinary performance by the Orange if the visitors were to win by four or more goals.
Seville aims to keep their campaign in the UEFA Europa League alive. To do so, they must overcome the eighth-final hurdle against PSV. After a 3-0 victory at Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán, the Seville side still has to complete the job in the second leg, set to take place in the Netherlands.
What result does Sevilla need against PSV to reach the round of 16 in the Europa League 2022-2023?
The second leg is scheduled at the Philips Stadium in Eindhoven on Thursday, February 23, with kickoff at 6:45 PM. The Nervion club holds a useful cushion that could secure advancement even if they lose the match overall.
It is worth noting that away goals no longer carry extra weight, so Sampaoli’s squad does not need to press with high risk in attack right from the start.
Sevilla will advance if the following happens:
- Win the match regardless of the score.
- Draw the match in any outcome.
- Lose by one or two goals overall
The tie would go to extra time if PSV secures a three-goal margin: for example, 3-0, 4-1, 5-2, and similar scorelines would push the contest into extra time.
Sevilla will be eliminated if PSV wins by a margin of four goals or more in the second leg, giving PSV the required aggregate advantage.
