Sevilla vs Bayern Munich Match Preview
Fresh from dumping Manchester United from the Champions League round-of-16, Sevilla will hope to repeat the shock on favourites Bayern Munich when they take them in the quarters. The first leg of this Sevilla vs Bayern Munich fixture will be played at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan stadium in Seville on Tuesday, April 3, so check out our Sevilla vs Bayern Munich prediction and betting tips.
Sevilla
They may not be heavy weights in the Champions League at the moment, but Sevilla deserve every bit of their place in the quarters. They held Manchester United to a goalless draw at home, before stunning them at Old Trafford 2-1. No matter how fluctuating their fortunes have been, defeating United at home isn’t an easy task this season and Sevilla have achieved that! Having said that the hosts have an uphill task ahead of the Sevilla vs Bayern Munich game as the Bavarians are one of the title contenders. They have picked up a 2-2 draw against Barcelona at home in the weekend, although at 2-0 the result should have been a win for them. They have lost three of their last eight matches (W3, D2, L3) with two of those coming at home!
Bayern Munich
Bayern have started the season in a poor fashion, but ever since Jupp Heynckes took over, their form has improved with every outing. They come into this Sevilla vs Bayern Munich fixture having thrashed Borussia Dortmund 6-0 during the weekend. That win makes it 16 wins from their last 18 games in all competitions. They brushed aside Besiktas 8-1 on aggregate in the previous round and look in top form for this encounter. With their Polish striker Robert Lewandowski in top form – he has 31 goals in 31 games in Bundesliga and Champions League – the visitors hope to continue their tryst with high scoring. Sevilla is not a team to be taken lightly, but Bayern look to be playing at a different level altogether!

Sevilla vs Bayern Munich Prediction
Sevilla will do well to forget their win against Manchester United because Bayern is a bigger challenge. It will be difficult to stop the visitors from finding the back of the net, with the kind of scoring form they currently have. Having won eight of their last nine fixtures away from home, we are backing a win for Bayern along with the prediction that both sides will score. If you are looking for a specific goal scorer, pick Lewandowski to score anytime in the match.
