Sevilla vs Juventus lineups: Predicted XIs, confirmed team news and injury latest for Europa League semi-final

Juventus will be without Paul Pogba and Leonardo Bonucci for their Europa League decider with Sevilla.

A late goal in Turin earned the Italians a 1-1 draw as they head to Spain for the second leg of their semi-final tie.

However, Bonucci was struck down by a hamstring injury in that game and will miss around two weeks of action, ruling him out of the return fixture.

Pogba’s season is over, meanwhile, after he was taken off in tears against Cremonense on the weekend having suffered a thigh injury - only 22 minutes into his first start for Juve in 390 days.

Mattia De Sciglio will also miss out for Juventus due to a ligament issue while Angel Di Maria and Manuel Locatelli should return to the line-up after being rested.

For Sevilla, Lucas Ocampos is expected to be fit having come off early in the first leg as a precaution, with Suso also set to be ready after a hamstring issue.

Loic Bade is their key doubt having already lost Marcao to injury in defence. The injured Joan Jordan will miss out, with Jesus Corona and Pape Gueye unregistered.

Predicted Sevilla XI: Bono; Navas, Bade, Gudelj, Acuna; Fernando, Rakitic; Ocampos, Oliver, Gil; En-Nesyri (4-2-3-1)

Predicted Juventus XI: Szczesny; Danilo, Bremer, Sandro; Cuadrado, Paredes, Locatelli, Rabiot, Kostic; Di Maria; Vlahovic (3-5-1-1)
