This promises to be an action-packed encounter for Sevilla at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán when the Champions League tournament arrives in town and Salzburg with it. Read all about the Group Stage match here!

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Tipico Bundesliga. That game, against Wattens, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Salzburg.

These teams have little in common geographically as Salzburg have to travel 2400 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
