Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Champions League group stage match between Wolfsburg and Sevilla.
The home side come into this game bottom of Group G after they drew 0-0 at French champions Lille in their opening match. They sit third in the Bundesliga after winning four of their first six games.
The visitors meanwhile sit second in the group after a 1-1 draw at home to RB Salzburg. They also sit third in their domestic league and are currently unbeaten in La Liga.
SUBS: Niklas Klinger, Felix Nmecha, Pavao Pervan, Aster Vranckx, Yannick Gerhardt, Maximilian Philipp, Micky van de Ven, Daniel Ginczek, Lukas Nmecha, Gian-Luca Waldschmidt.
SEVILLA (4-2-3-1): Yassine Bounou; Marcos Acuna, Diego Carlos, Jules Kounde, Jesus Navas; Joan Jordan, Fernando; Lucas Ocampos, Alejandro Gomez, Suso; Rafa Mir.
SUBS: Munir El Haddadi, Oscar Rodriguez, Marko Dmitrovic, Gonzalo Montiel, Thomas Delaney, Karim Rekik, Ivan Romero, Ludwig Augustinsson, Ivan Rakitic, Alfonso Pastor, Erik Lamela, Oliver Torres.
The two sides make their way onto the pitch before the Champions League anthem.
With both sides having drawn their first game, they will feel pressure to win this game and help them put enough points on the board to progress in this competition. It'll be interesting to see whether either manager will make a change at half-time to take control of this match and seize the advantage.
Thanks for joining me for this coverage of the 1-1 draw between Wolfsburg and Sevilla in the group stages of the Champions League.
The draw means that both teams stay in their respective positions in Group G, with the hosts remaining third while the visitors continue as second. Sevilla will travel to France to take on Lille next while Wolfsburg will play group leader RB Salzburg in their next Champions League game. After two draws for both sides in their opening couple of games, which of these will be able to step up their challenge to advance to the next round?
