Sevilla vs Roma - Europa League final: TV channel, team news, lineups & prediction
By Tom Gott
Sevilla and Roma meet in Budapest on Wednesday to battle in the Europa League final.
No team has ever won this competition more than Sevilla, who have lifted the trophy a whopping six times - twice more than anybody else - and they head into this one full of confidence after a real resurgence under Jose Luis Mendilibar.
If Sevilla want a seventh, they'll need to go through reigning Europa Conference League champions Roma who, led by Jose Mourinho, frustrated Bayer Leverkusen in the semi-final to earn a chance to compete for more silverware.
Here's all you need to know about the Europa League finale.

Sevilla team news
Mendilibar happily rested most of his big names last time out against Real Madrid, with the likes of Jesus Navas, Alex Telles, Fernando, Lucas Ocampos and Youssef En-Nesyri all set to return to the starting lineup.
Left-back Marcos Acuna is suspended, not for the red card he picked up against Real, but rather the two yellows he was shown in the semi-final second leg against Juventus. Two red cards in nine days? Pretty good going, that.

Sevilla vs Roma score prediction
Sevilla are specialists in this competition and their experience should not be overlooked. They've picked themselves up after a tough start to the season and have their sights firmly set on a seventh triumph here.
That should give them an edge against a Roma side cursed by a handful of injuries which, although not serious, could be problematic enough to limit their performance on this stage.
Expect a tough, tactical affair which Sevilla should just-about edge.
Prediction: Sevilla 2-1 Roma
