Fenerbahce vs Sevilla Prediction and Betting Tips | March 16th 2023

Fenerbahce will host Sevilla at the Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium on Thursday in the second leg of their UEFA Europa League last-16 tie.

The home team have enjoyed a strong league campaign battling rivals Galatasaray for the Turkish Super Lig title but will now turn their attention to European football this week. They were beaten 2-0 in their first leg clash last week and perhaps deserved more from the game as they created good chances to get on the scoresheet but failed to convert.

Fenerbahce will play their first continental home game of the year this week and will hope to turn the tie around in front of their supporters.

Sevilla, meanwhile, have endured a near-disastrous league campaign but continue to pick up results on the continental stage. They secured the advantage in the first leg, with Joan Jordan opening the scoring early in the second half before Erik Lamela extended the Sevillistas' lead late in the game.

The visitors already have a foot in the quarterfinals of the competition, only needing to avoid defeat on Thursday to advance.
