Escriba: Sevilla one of the best

Elche boss Fran Escriba has described Sunday’s opponents Sevilla as one of the best teams in La Liga.

The Andalusians have lost just once this season, a 4-0 hammering at the hands of Atletico Madrid, and Escriba believes his side will have to be at their best to cope with Unai Emery’s men, although he is going all out for the three points.

“Sevilla are a very good side, one of the best in this League, as they are very solid in defence and quick up front,” the 49-year-old told a Press conference.

“If we let them have space they will be really dangerous, so we must be tight and show a lot of intensity.

“The best way for us to approach this game would be to play as we did against them last season, when we ended up drawing, but we’ll be trying to get all three points.

“It is very important because it would be our first home win. I think we’ll play a very good game and the players are looking good,” he declared.
