UEFA CUP FINAL ..... SEVILLE - ESPANOL


This all Spanish tie takes place in Glasgow and any neutrals in the crowd, will be hoping that this is as entertaining, as recent finals, 5 of the last 6 have been "over" with a massive 27 goals, at an average of 4.5 per game.

It is hard not to see goals again this evening.

Two league meetings produced 7, Espanol are "over" in their last 5 league starts and in 4 from 5 in this competition. Seville in their last 4 league fixtures and 5 from 6 in the UEFA Cup.

Espanol are very motivated to win, claiming that this is the most important match of their life's, they have several in form strikers and are sure to give it a real go.

Seville are the classier outfit and are looking to be only the second club in history, to retain this trophy. With a huge league game at the weekend, they will be keen to finish this in 90 minutes. I am expecting this to be a full blooded, entertaining encounter, with a few goals.
Likely teams ...
Espanyol: 1-Gorka Iraizoz; 8-Pablo Zabaleta, 21-Daniel Jarque, 19-Marc Torrejon, 3-David Garcia; 18-Franciso Rufete, 9-Ivan de la Pena, 22-Moises Hurtado, 11-Albert Riera; 23-Raul Tamudo, 7-Walter Pandiani.

Sevilla: 1-Andres Palop; 4-Daniel Alves, 2-Javi Navarro, 19-Ivica Dragutinovic, 3-David Castedo; 15-Jesus Navas, 8-Christian Poulsen, 11-Renato, 16-Antonio Puerta or 6-Adriano Correia; 10-Luis Fabiano, 12-Frederic Kanoute.

5 points over 2.25 goals Seville-Espanol 1.82 asian line. 1-1 -2.5 pts
Good luck.
