Copa del Rey quarter-final clash against Sevilla
Atleti will play the first leg of our Copa quarter-final tie in the Wanda Metropolitano at 7 p.m. CET.
After eliminating Elche and Lleida, Atlético de Madrid will host Sevilla in the Wanda Metropolitano at 7 p.m. CET for the first leg of the Copa del Rey quarter-final.
Back in September, Atleti beat Sevilla 2-0 in the Wanda Metropolitano. However the Copa is a different competition and both teams are going to give it their all to win it. In the Copa, we've faced Sevilla 19 times with a balance of 8 wins, 3 draws and 8 defeats.
So far in 2018, we've won all our matches and haven't conceded a single goal. However, Diego Pablo Simeone knows Sevilla are a strong side and is confident they'll put up a good fight in the Wanda Metropolitano.
"Sevilla are an important rival, a great cup team, with great players," Simeone said.
