Sevilla FC:

Currently, Sevilla is standing at number fifth position in LaLiga and are eleven points behind number four seated Valencia, hence, their hope of finishing as top four are very less.

Sevilla recently, shared a video on Twitter that says, "We have already done incredible things….Why not again?"

Though, Sevilla is also not letting this go easily as they have one advantage of not losing any of the three fixtures they have played against English opposition this season.
