Both clubs have been charged by European soccer's governing body following crowd disturbances at the match on Wednesday.
There were skirmishes between supporters of both teams prior to Sevilla's 3-1 victory in Switzerland.
Liverpool and Sevilla fans were sharing one end of the stadium and when scuffles broke out there was initially only a small stewarding presence in position to prevent fighting.

Police entered the terrace minutes later and stood between the two sets of fans.
