What They're Saying
River Plate manager Marcelo Gallardo (via Marca): "It's a privilege to host the champions of UEFA, a club with great significance, that has a lot of history, a great trainer and players."
Sevilla manager Unai Emery: "River have 35 league titles and many international players. They are a great figure in the world of football. This is a game that will demand a lot, especially with the 48,000 people assisting the Monumental. If anything can be football, it's River."
Sevilla president Jose Castro (via Inside Spanish Football): "We're delighted with our manager and enjoying having him here with us, as his statistics reflect our position in the league table. We want to improve his contract and we're talking, with plenty of willingness on both sides. Hopefully, a new deal will be agreed soon. Although, there's neither any rush, nor any concern."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: With a slew of players away on international duty, River Plate must rely on those that are predominantly on the bench. At just 19 years old, expect Lucas Boye to be the one to lead the charge atop the formation.
River Plate's Projected Lineup (4-4-2 Diamond): Chiarini; Mercado, Mammana, Pezzella, Vega; Solari, Ponzio, Driussi; Pisculichi; Boye, Simeone
Sevilla's Projected Lineup (4-5-1): Rico; Navarro, Pareja, Kolo, Coke; Vitolo, Iborra, Carico, Figueiras, Suarez; Aspas
