The tournament is being played out in a sudden-death format due to the Covid-19 pandemic, with tonight’s winner set to face Manchester United in the semi-finals on Sunday.
Wolves’ Premier League season ended in disappointing fashion, with the club sliding into a seventh-place finish on the final day. However, Nuno Espirito Santo’s side responded by defeating Olympiacos at Molineux last week to reach this stage of the competition. Sevilla, who finished fourth in La Liga, beat Roma to reach the last eight. Follow all the action live below:

That late Ocampos goal will hurt Wolves, who had aspirations to go all the way in this competition. But they remain on the right track. That they ran a club with such Europa League pedigree so close tonight is testament to that. The performance was below par, but Sevilla always looked a level above.
The other quarter-final tonight finished Shakhtar Donetsk 4-1 Basel, so the Ukrainian side will play Inter on Monday.
Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo, speaking to BT Sport: "It's frustrating, in the last minute something that's happened to us many times. But I'm proud of the boys. It's small details, small margins. We came this far, now it's over. Let's rest and look to the future. We must be proud of ourselves and admit that we made some mistakes this season that we have to rectify to play at a high level. We must work harder on small details to become stronger. We're here because we did things really really good the previous season. European football is something that we chase because we want to improve. Nothing can disturb the work the players are doing. They will be ready for the next one. A word to our fans back in Wolverhampton: we miss them. Everything would be different with their presence. We miss them."
