Kickoff is at 9 p.m., and PREMIUM TIMES is excited to bring you all the action, insights, and behind-the-scenes moments courtesy of #LaLigaExperience and StarTimes.

Nigeria’s Ejuke ready for action

There will be Nigerian interest in tonight’s match, as Chidera Ejuke is expected to feature for Sevilla after returning from a three-month injury layoff.

The winger suffered a high-grade hamstring tear in the reverse fixture against Barcelona in October but is now back to full fitness and eager to make an impact.

With fellow Nigerian forward Akor Adams ruled out due to a thigh injury sustained in training, Ejuke will be Sevilla’s main Super Eagles representative on the pitch.
