Sevilla boss Unai Emery has admitted that his side will need to be at their best to overcome Borussia Monchengladbach in the last-32 stage of the Europa League.
The two sides meet in the first leg on Thursday, and Emery has claimed that neither will enter the clash as favourites.
"It's an important tie. They're third in the Bundesliga at the moment, it's difficult to say who's the favourite. We have our recent history and are currently fifth in the league with 45 points," Emery told reporters.
"It's a major challenge – I wouldn't like to call the favourite."
Sevilla are the current holders of the Europa League having overcome Benfica in last season's final.
