The German Borussia M`gladbach welcomes the Spanish Sevilla in a meeting rematch of 1/16 finals of Europa League. Guests took minimal advance a week ago after the victory in Spain with 1:0. This success came after a hit by Vicente Iborra. This result by 11livematches makes the rematch very interesting, as both teams had their chances to qualify. At bet365.com we can choose to bet for ranking of one of the two teams - the hosts` coefficient is 3.50 and for the guests to move in the race is 1.28. Victory of Borussia M`gladbach is accepted at 2.20, with a draw at 3.40 and the success of Sevilla is estimated at 3.60.
The boys of Lucien Favre never stop to surprise with their performance this season. The team is in third place in the German Bundesliga with a total of 37 points. In the last round of the championship came to the draw of 1:1 against Hamburger SV after a goal in the last minute of Branimir Hrgota. Borussia M`gladbach is one of the most stable hosts in German and this season in Europe is unbeaten in front of his fans. In the previous 17 home games, the team scored at least one goal and even against the champions Bayern Munich. Borussia needs goals to move forward in the tournament and we can expect offensive play from the team.
Spaniards are not in the best form. The team is in fifth place in La Liga with 45 points collected, struggling with Valencia for a place in the Top 4. Over the weekend, lost to Real Sociedad with 4:3 in a very interesting game full of many twists. The concern of the coach Unai Emery is the weak performance of the team in their visits. Sevilla lost their last five matches in all competitions as guest. Unfortunately, on Thursday night against them stands a very strong host.
We are about to watch a great match with many unknowns. The current winner of the trophy Sevilla is undoubtedly the favorite in this match, but we must not forget the strong form of Borussia Moenchengladbach.
Prediction Borussia Moenchengladbach - Sevilla: 1
Security: 6/10
Odds: 2.20 at bet365

Espanyol - Sevilla (Copa del Rey)
In the last meeting of this week, Espanyol takes Sevilla for the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey. The odds for the game offered by the leading bookmaker bet365 are as follows: 2.88 for a home win, with a draw at 3.30 and 2.50 for the victory of the guests. The hosts won two consecutive games before this round, as in the last round of the tournament were able to remove the team of Valencia. Guests of Sevilla are in excellent shape and in several months in a row are unbeaten.
Espanyol are located in the middle of the table in Primera Division. The team is far from the places entitling participation in tournaments, but also far from the danger zone. The team`s ambitions are associated with staying in the elite, but for the King`s Cup hardly hope for something, because there are quite serious teams in the race. Anyway the victory over Valencia should not be overlooked, especially in this first game with Sevilla, the coach Gonzalez will try to take advantage. We were impressed by the choice of Gonzales for the starting team over the weekend, when the attacker Caicedo was on the bench, even after he managed to bring his team to victory over Valencia with two hits. This time, Gonzales will rely on his skill for this important meeting and generally there are no serious problems with the other players.
Guests are in very good shape and recorded victory after victory in all competitions. The team fights for the third place with Atletico Madrid in Primera Division and remains two points behind them. From the beginning of 2015, Sevilla played five matches, as they conceded only one goal. Their last rival in the Copa del Rey - Granada, was removed very easy with a total score 6-1. Sevilla continue with some difficulties connected with several problematic players, but their reserves are not so weak.
Espanyol traditionally played hard against Sevilla and it is likely that visitors will take the lead in this first game.
Prediction Espanyol - Sevilla: 2
Security: 7/10
Odds: 2.50 at bet365
