The stage for Wednesday’s Europa League final to be played at Stadion Narodowy is set. The two remaining, Spain’s Sevilla and Ukraine’s FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk will battle it out for the prestigious European trophy, as they prepare for the game in Warsaw.
A very own modern day David and Goliath story, Unai Emery’s side are heavily tipped as favorites to triumph, despite the Spanish manager’s protest. Los Hispalenses are one of the tournament’s most successful side’s.
The Warrior of Lights, despite their rich history and successful stint in the 80s’, are underdogs for the finals and are expected to run out of luck when they cross paths with the Liga BBVA giants.
Having beaten Napoli en route to the final, the Ukrainian side should not be counted out just yet. Anything is possible in football. Here are five astonishing records that could be broken in Wednesday’s final.
Sevilla to win record-breaking 4th title
The Spanish giants are one of the tournament's most successful sides, tied with Juventus, Inter Milan, and Liverpool, with 3 wins each. A win on Wednesday will make the Andalusian side the undisputed most successful teams of the Euopa League.
Los Hispalenses second consecutive trophies
Since Unai Emery's team are the reigning champions, should they triumph over Dnipro, they would have back-to-back titles on two separate occassions, becoming the first team to ever reach this feat.

Dnipro to end Ukrainian sides' unrivaled European record?
Ukrainian sides boast a 100% record in major European finals. However, Dnipro are not expected to beat Sevilla, meaning this impressive record may come to an abrupt end.

Sevilla to make UCL return
Five seasons have come and gone since Sevilla last featured in the Champions League. They could make the competition next season, though, should they win the Europa League.

The Warriors of Light were once a very successful side, but have failed to win any silverware since 1989. Could their trophy-drought end with a Europa League title?
