The Russian Premier League leaders welcome back defenders Domenico Criscito and Igor Smolnikov, midfielder Danny and influential forward Hulk, who all missed the first leg through suspension.

But the hosts will be without suspended duo Ezequiel Garay and Alexander Ryazantsev, the man who put his side ahead at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan before Carlos Bacca and Denis Suarez handed Sevilla control.

Zenit boss Andre Villas-Boas said: “We know what we need to do and are going to play with our hearts. We want to make it through to the semi-finals.

“We are going to play attacking football based on having four additional players but we know how capable our opponents are on the attack and the counter attack, so you have to play balanced football.”

Sevilla coach Unai Emery knows the holders face a tough test when they travel to Russia.

Emery’s only injury concern is centre-back Dani Carrico with  French defender Timothee Kolodziejczak set to keep his place.

“We know the tie against Zenit is not just 90 minutes, it is 180, and we are well prepared in case we go into extra time or beyond, because Zenit is a team that competes very well and are very experienced,” Emery said.
