Hello and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE text commentary of the UEFA Super Cup between the Champions League winners Bayern Munich and serial Europa League champs, Sevilla. Kick-off is an hour away, and I'll grab the team news in a moment.

Kick-off! Bayern get us underway in Budapest.

A reminder of the teams... Bayern XI: Neuer, Sule, Pavard, Alaba, Hernandez, Kimmich, Goretzka, Gnabry, Sane, Muller, Lewandowski /// Sevilla XI: Bono, Navas, Kounde, Carlos, Escudero, Fernando, Jordan, Rakitic, Ocampos, Suso, De Jong.

Anthony Taylor is tonight's referee, by the way.

Five minutes until kick-off and I must tell you it's a strange thing to see supporters inside the stadium tonight.

Bayern may be 31 games unbeaten, winning 22 successively, but Sevilla also come into tonight's fixture on the back of an impressive run. They are 21 matches unbeaten, although their La Liga campaign hasn't started yet.

Sevilla boss Julen Lopetegui is also full of praise for Bayern. "A team like this has not appeared in Europe for many years," Lopetegui said. "Bayern have a coach who deserves a lot of credit for the way he has led the team and has given a strong identity. It is very difficult to do what he has done because they know exactly how they want to play, how they want to attack, where they are going to defend."

Wow, big praise!

Bayern are making their fifth appearance in this competition, having lost in 1975, 1976 and 2001. Sevilla have played in six finals, winning the trophy just once - back in 2006 when they beat Barcelona 3-0!

It is seven years since Bayern last appeared in this competition. Chelsea, of course, were their opponents in 2013 and it ended 1-1 in normal time, with Franck Ribery cancelling out Fernando Torres' opener. Eden Hazard restored the Blues' lead in extra-time before Javi Martinez grabbed a last-gasp equaliser, with the Bundesliga giants emerging 5-4 winners on penalties.

There will be 15,500 supporters in tonight's stadium, Puskas Arena in Budapest.

Sevilla will play the same system that saw them defeat Inter in the Europa League final last month. The only changes are Ivan Rakitic, who comes in for the departed Ever Banega and Sergio Escudero, replacing Tottenham new boy Sergio Reguilon.

Leroy Sane makes his European debut for the club, having scored and grabbed two assists twice on his debut as Bayern thrashed Schalke 8-0 on the opening day of Bundesliga.

Kingsley Coman is missing through injury, but David Alaba has recovered from a muscular problem to start for Bayern, while Robert Lewandowski has shaken off a niggle and will also feature from kick-off. The only surprise is that Alphonso Davies does not start, with Lucas Hernandez getting the nod.
