Champions League champions On Wednesday at Olympiacos’ Karaiskakis Stadium, the 2023 UEFA Super Cup will feature Manchester City and Sevilla, the winners of the Europa League.
Manchester City won the Champions League for the first time when they defeated Inter Milan 1-0 in Istanbul back in June.
Sevilla, who won the Europa League last season after defeating Roma on penalties, did so for the seventh time overall and the fifth time in the previous ten years.
After falling to Arsenal in the Community Shield on penalties, Manchester City opened their Premier League campaign with a straightforward 3-0 victory over Burnley the previous time out.
Unexpectedly, Erling Haaland scored twice in the first half to defeat the newly elevated team, and Rodri added the final goal after the interval.
Last season, Pep Guardiola’s team had a remarkable Champions League run, staying undefeated in 13 games, scoring 32 goals, and recording eight shutouts.
Man City will be motivated to add the UEFA Super Cup trophy to their collection after last season’s taste of European triumph.
Sevilla, on the other hand, secured their spot in the Super Cup by winning the Europa League once more last year, marking their fifth victory in ten years.
As a consequence, the Spanish team has participated in four of the past nine Super Cups, losing each time.
The 2017 La Liga season began with Sevilla losing the inaugural match 2-1 against Valencia, with Loic Bade receiving a red card late in the game.
Thus, Sevilla has only been able to win one of their last seven games throughout the full 90 minutes, such as a pre-season friendly.
Remarkably, Man City and Sevilla met in the Champions League group stage of last season, with Guardiola’s team winning the two encounters 7-1 on aggregate.
Over the years, Manchester City and Sevilla have faced off four times, with four wins for City and three losses for Sevilla.
Team news: Kevin De Bruyne will miss Wednesday’s match for Manchester City due to injury, and Ruben Dias and John Stones are also questionable.
On the other hand, Tanguy Nianzou, Alfonso Pastor Vacas, and Marcao are presently out injured for Sevilla.
