What They're Saying
Sevilla manager Unai Emery (via UEFA): "We have to pay attention to Mario Gomez, Mohamed Salah, Borja Valero and Marcos Alonso when he gets forward. Fiorentina are coming to the end of a very good season. We are two similar teams, looking at the trophies both clubs have won, so it is an even tie. Fiorentina have eliminated three great teams: Tottenham, Roma and Dynamo Kyiv. They also have plenty of good players."
Fiorentina manager Vincenzo Montella: Unai Emery is a great coach. He has proved it in the past and he is doing it again. The first leg is very important, but not decisive as long as there is not a big difference in goals scored. It is an incentive for us if people are considering Sevilla favorites."
