SEVILLA underlined their status as Europa League masters by demolishing PSV Eindhoven in Spain last week and only a major collapse in this second leg will deny them a place in the last 16.
I thought the first leg would be cagey but the La Liga club blew away their Dutch opponents by coasting to a 3-0 win as they continued their resurgence under Jorge Sampaoli.
It's now just two defeats in 14 games for Sevilla and only a brave man would bet against them adding another Europa League crown to the six they have collected since 2006.
Unless they can mount an incredible comeback, the season looks set to end in European disappointment for PSV Eindhoven. Ruud van Nistelrooy's men started the season with high hopes of playing in the Champions League but were stunned by a home defeat to Rangers in the play-off round.
Finishing second behind Arsenal in their Europa League group was a decent effort but that first-leg defeat in Spain proved how far off the elite this PSV side remain.
They could only manage a 2-2 draw at Utrecht after coming home from Seville so it's hard to see van Nistelrooy's men mounting a shock comeback when the La Liga giants come calling.
How the bookies view it
Sevilla are now just 1/16 to qualify (VBet) while you can get odds of 12/1 at LiveScoreBet on PSV Eindhoven turning it around. But the Dutch side are favourites for a win on the night at 11/10 (Unibet) while Sevilla are 88/35 (VBet) and the draw pays 11/4 (Betfred).
Head to head
Last week's clash at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan was the first competitive meetings of these sides. PSV Eindhoven will be out for revenge on home soil.
Players to watch
Luuk De Jong flopped in the first leg against his old club but scored for PSV Eindhoven at the weekend and will be fired up for this Euro return. The experienced striker is 21/10 at Paddy Power for anytime scorer.
I flagged up Youssef En-Nesyri as Sevilla's biggest threat in the first leg and it was the Moroccan who scored the opening goal. He's 13/5 with William Hill to grab another goal in the Netherlands.
Anything else catch the eye?
PSV Eindhoven need to push forward in numbers to keep this tie alive so it should be an open game. Over 2.5 goals is 10/11 with Bet365 while BTTS is shorter at 3/4 with the same firm.
Backing corners paid off for me in the first leg as we saw 11 and there could be plenty more here as PSV Eindhoven need to go all-out attack. Over 9.5 corners looks good at 5/4 with Paddy Power while backing the Dutch side at -1 in the handicap pays evens at BetVictor.
We only saw two cards in the first leg and thankfully one of them went to Nemanja Gudelj after I backed him to fall foul of the ref. For the second leg, I'm switching to PSV enforcer Ibrahim Sangare, who has seven yellows to his name this term. The midfielder is 11/4 at Bet365 for another card in this one.
