Prediction

Sevilla have been in this fixture numerous times before with great success, but their opponents have a coach in Conte who is very familiar with winning trophies. Sevilla impressed in beating United, but Inter showed tremendous defensive skills in limiting Shakhtar to zero first-half shots on target in their semi-final before proving their attacking prowess by scoring five times. Inter have a powerful line-up and they will certainly be expecting to get their hands on the trophy. Sevilla 1-2 Inter Milan.
