The Europa League round of 16 draw resulted in a double confrontation between Spanish and Italian teams: Sevilla will face Rome and Getafe will cross with Inter Milan on the way to the Gdansk final on May 27.
For Sevilla, the visit to Italy is already a classic. Last year, in fact, in sixteenths he already traveled to Rome to face Lazio, which he defeated 0-1 in the first leg. In the 2016-2017 season, the group stage of the Champions was measured at Juventus and in the 2014-2015 course, without going any further, he met Fiorentina in the semifinals of the Europa League.
It will be a special match for the sports director of the entity, Monchi, who worked in Rome from 2017 to 2019 and, in principle, in this duel the Spanish team starts as a favorite. Roma is fifth in Serie A three points behind the Champions League positions.
For Getafe, however, his flight to Milan will be less usual. On the one hand, for the conditions of the trip, in full expansion of the coronavirus, in the area of Milan (the previous Inter-Ludogorets was already played behind closed doors) and, on the other hand, for its supposed inferiority. Once again, as happened with Ajax in sixteenths, he will leave his rival as a favorite, although he will have his options for sure.
Inter Milan is currently third in Serie A behind Juventus and Lazio with prominent players such as Romelu Lukaku, Lautaro Martínez or Diego Godín . He joined Christian Eriksen in the winter market, although he has not yet reached the expected return.
