On the back of their incredible home form, Sevilla will be looking to defend their Europa League title in Warsaw on Wednesday evening when they face Dnipro. 

Drawn into Group G, Sevilla qualified for the knockout stages of the competition finishing second behind Feyenoord on the back of three wins from three at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.

Beginning the defence of their crown at home to Feyenoord in September, two first-half goals from Grzegorz Krychowiak and Stephane Mbia gave them a 2-0 win over the Dutch side to open with three points. 

They then followed the opening victory up with two draws away from home. Firstly, against last season's Croatian Cup winners HNK Rijeka, an Mbia strike in added time helped Sevilla fightback to grab a 2-2 draw after they had taken the lead through Iago Aspas, which they then followed up with a goalless draw in Belgium against Standard Liege. 

In the return match against the Belgian league runners-up, goals from Kevin Gameiro, Jose Antonio Reyes and Carlos Bacca gave the Andalucian side a 3-1 win to put them in a good position to qualify.

Sevilla then suffered their first defeat of the competition, a 2-0 loss at Feyenoord in front of over 50,000 fans in Rotterdam, before sealing their passage through to the knockout stages with a 1-0 win over Rijeka thanks to a Denis Suarez goal midway through the first half. 

As one of the unseeded sides through to the last 32, Sevilla were drawn against Borussia Monchengladbach, the winners of Group A. 

With the first leg at home, Sevilla made the advantage count, with a 1-0 victory given to them by a goal from Vincent Iborra 20 minutes from time. 

In the return leg, Sevilla were given a dream start, with Bacca opening the scoring after just eight minutes, before the German side fired back with a goal 10 minutes later through Granit Xhaka. 

Vitolo then regained the two-goal aggregate lead, which was then cut in half again by Thorgan Hazard, with Vitolo finally confirming the victory, slotting home in the 79th minute as Sevilla went through 4-2 on aggregate in a pulsating tie. 

Sevilla were then handed a last 16 encounter against fellow Spaniards Villarreal who had overcome Red Bull Salzburg in the previous round. 

Emery's side flew out of the traps in the away leg, finding themselves two-goals to the good after 25 minutes through Vitolo and M'bia. Villarreal grabbed a goal back thanks to Luciano Vietto, before Gameiro struck soon after to give Sevilla a 3-1 lead going into their home leg. 

The second leg went as planned, with Sevilla coming out on top thanks to goals from Iborra and Suarez, either side of a Giovanni Dos Santos strike, giving them a 5-2 aggregate success.

The quarter-finals were less straightforward, with Sevilla eventually overcoming Zenit after only winning the home leg 2-1 first up thanks to late goals from Bacca and Suarez after the Russian's had taken an early lead through Aleksandr Ryazantsev. 

In Russia for the return, a Bacca penalty after just six minutes gave Sevilla an early lead, before they were pegged-back by their hosts through Salomon Rondon and Hulk after two horrendous goalkeeping gaffes by Beto to bring the tie level at 3-3. 

With extra-time seemingly on the cards, substitute Gameiro powered home a strike with just five minutes remaining to keep Sevilla on track to recapture their title with a 4-3 aggregate success over AVB's side. 

Sevilla romped into the final with a 5-0 aggregate semi-final success over Fiorentina. 

They made it seven-consecutive wins in the competition at their home fortress with a stunning 3-0 victory in the first leg, thanks to a brace from Aleix Vidal, and another late Gameiro strike. 

The second leg in Florence, saw Sevilla come out 2-0 winners after goals midway through the opening half from Daniel Carrico, and the sides leading scoring in the competition this campaing, the Colombian hitman, Carlos Bacca.
