Statement Wolfsburg
Florian Kohfeldt, Wolfsburg coach, spoke ahead of the game: "When our captain is ruled out at short notice, it's not something we're happy about. On the other hand, I would like to point out that in Pavao Pervan we have someone who has been extremely reliable when called upon. I have no doubt that we will have a very good goalkeeper in goal tomorrow."
"Sevilla are a very intense team whose strengths include working on the counter, which is perhaps a bit unusual for a Spanish team. They are very strong on the ball, especially with their passing game. We have to adapt to that, but also show flexibility. Up front, above all, we have to play with speed in all situations, otherwise we'll make it easy for Sevilla."
"If we want to have more than just a Champions League game, it's very important. After our home win against Salzburg, the group is wide open for all teams. We don't have the best starting position, but it's in our hands and we're very happy about that. We don't have a lot to lose, but we have a lot to gain. That's what we want to take to the field tomorrow: a certain level of excitement and hunger to go further."
"The fact that Josh is sitting here is a strong indicator that he's going to play. Paulo Otavio is also available for the last training session. He passed the last [fitness] test here with flying colors. The likelihood of him being in the squad tomorrow - and possibly even starting - is very high."
