Form
European record
Sevilla are the kings of this competition, having won it on a record five occasions. All of those successes have come since first lifting the trophy, then known as the UEFA Cup, in 2006, with further successes coming in 2007, 2014, 2015 and 2016. Sevilla have regularly proved the scourge of English opposition in continental competitions, beating Middlesbrough in that first triumph and Liverpool in their most recent. United know their threat all too well having fallen to a shock 2-1 loss to the Andalusians at Old Trafford in the Champions League in March 2018, when substitute Wissam Ben Yedder’s brace saw Jose Mourinho’s men tumble out in the round of 16.
