SEVILLA and the Europa League are a match made in heaven but Inter Milan have the quality to end the affair in Cologne on Friday night.
The La Liga side are chasing an incredible sixth triumph in this tournament in the last 14 years.
I flagged them up as a good shout for glory at 6-1 before the quarter-finals and Sevilla are now 13-10 with McBookie to lift the trophy and 12-4 to win inside 90 minutes.
Given their past Europa League record and the fact they are on a 20-game unbeaten run, plenty of punters will fancy Julien Lopetegui’s men.
But Inter are also unbeaten in 11 and smashed Shakhtar Donestk 5-0 in the semi-finals to make a huge statement of intent.
Sevilla were a bit lucky to get past Manchester United in their semi so I fancy the Serie A side to edge this.
Betfred had Inter at 5-4 to lift the trophy but that bet no longer seems to be available, with every other firm making them odds on.
However, Antonio Conte’s men are 23-20 with McBookie to win inside 90 minutes and that’s still a decent option.
Their front two of Lauturo Martinez and Romelu Lukaku should have too much firepower for Sevilla.
Lukaku has scored in his last 10 Europa League games and is 7-5 with Paddy Power for anytime scorer here.
The same firm also have boosted to 14-1 on the big Belgian scoring with a header and that’s a great option.
Finals sometimes take a while to get going so it could pay to back the second period to be the highest-scoring half.
That bet has come up in three of the last four Europa showpieces and is 23-20 with Betway here.
