Borussia Dortmund travel to the South of Spain to face a struggling Sevilla side in the Champions League.
Dortmund come into this game off the back of an entertaining 3-2 defeat to Cologne at the weekend, a result that saw Edin Terzic’s side drop to 4th in the Bundesliga, two points behind leaders Union Berlin.
BVB have begun their Champions League campaign similarly to their domestic campaign, with mixed results.
The German side lost last time out at the Etihad, as their former striker Erling Haaland scored a dramatic late winner to defeat his former club.

However, they overcame Copenhagen in matchday one with an outstanding performance, with goals from Marco Reus, Raphael Guerreiro and Jude Bellingham, meaning that they still find themselves within a strong position in Group G going into matchday three.
The same cannot be said for their opponents tonight, who have suffered a disastrous start to the season, sitting 17th in La Liga and bottom of Group G.
City thrashed Sevilla 4-0 in early September, before the Spanish outfit were held to a stalemate by Copenhagen last time out in this competition.
Julen Lopetegui’s side were beaten convincingly by Atletico Madrid at the weekend and have accumulated just five points from their opening seven games in the league this season.
