might sub chiellini with rugani depending on condition
I think that is the team he will pick. Only exception might be Chiellini depending on his condition, otherwise it would be Rugani. The above system can easily be interpreted as a 433 or even a 352 with Evra moving into the back 3 and Alves and Sandro being wingbacks with Cuadrado playing off Mandzukic.
Its a bummer that Higuain is not fit for this game but I have a sneaking suspicion the team might play better football with that kind of line-up - however, that does not mean we will get a positive result. I think Sevilla will edge out a 1-0 home win or low scoring draw. Sevilla strikes me as the type of team that is good at grinding results out in Europe no matter what.
No matter what the result, I have a feeling that opportunities will be created but squandered by us.
