Sevilla looks to control matches through a high press and verticality in a 3-4-3. This formation is built to win the ball high up the pitch and immediately look for ways to punish the opposition. The lineup focuses on heavy pressure and quick movements to unsettle the back line of the opponent.

Valencia stays between the posts to command the area. The back line works as a back three where Amadu acts as the right centre-back and Маркао plays as the left centre-back. Ньяньон sits in the middle to manage the line and sweep behind the others. These three defenders defend zonally to protect the central space. They must stay compact to prevent anyone from playing through the lines.

In the center of the pitch, a two-man midfield handles the transition. Дилейни and Оскар operate as a central pairing to control the middle. Дилейни works to win the second ball and shield the defence while Оскар tries to carry the ball forward. The wide players Видаль and Идрисси play as wing backs to provide width. They need to track back to help the defence and push up to support the attack.

The attacking unit uses three forwards to stretch the defence. Коне acts as a pressing centre-forward to lead the line. Гансо and Мир play as wide attackers. Гансо cuts inside from the right to create chances while Мир uses his pace to attack the space on the left. They combine in tight spaces to create chances through quick passes and runs in behind the defence.

Sevilla offers several tactical advantages with this lineup. The presence of three attackers and two wing backs allows for wide overloads that can pin the last defender. The midfield pairing can also press in a mid-block to force a long ball from the opposition. This allows the back three to win the header and regain possession quickly.

This 3-4-3 formation relies on intense pressing and rapid transitions to dominate games. It is best suited for matches against teams that try to build play from the back.
