Sevilla vs Real Madrid – La Liga

Betting Predictions

Lately, Zinedine Zidane and Real Madrid are not having a good time. They haven’t won in their last four games (three in La Liga, one in UEFA Champions League); they are in fourth place domestically and their UEFA Champions League ticket for the Round of 16 is in jeopardy.

That’s exactly why this is a great opportunity for Sevilla to end their three-game losing streak against “Los Blancos” in La Liga.

Why bet on Sevilla?

Unlike Real Madrid, Sevilla have been winning, at least in La Liga. They won their last three games; 1-0 against Osasuna, 4-2 against Celta de Vigo, and 1-0 against S.D. Huesca.

Sevilla come in fifth place with 16 points (5-1-3), but they have two games less than Real Sociedad (first place with 24 points). They have scored 12 goals and allowed just eight (third best in the league).

Sevilla have conceded just two goals in their last three games. They come from a midweek 4-0 loss against Chelsea (UEFA Champions League), but several regular starting players received some rest because they were already qualified for the Round of 16.

Youssef En-Nesyri is the team’s top scorer with four goals. Jesus Navas leads the assists department with three.

Julen Lopetegui is Sevilla’s coach. Previously, he coached Real Madrid for a few months, which means he knows the players and their style very well.

Why Bet on Real Madrid?

Real Madrid (mainly Zinedine Zidane) really need to win here. They have one game less than Real Sociedad, but even winning that game they would be four points away from first place, which means they can’t afford another loss, not right now.

“Los Blancos” have 17 points thanks to a 5-2-3 record. Recently, they lost against Valencia (4-1) and Deportivo Alaves (2-1); they also tied 1-1 against Villarreal.

Their last victory was against S.D. Huesca (last place) back in October. Also, they come from a tough 2-0 loss against Shakhtar (UEFA Champions League).

All players need to step up and save Zidane’s job. He has been defending them for almost three years, even those who haven’t been good enough. That sentiment can impulse them to play the game of their lives.

Karim Benzema is the team’s top scorer with four goals. He’s also the assists leader, alongside Rodrygo, with three.

Discarded Players and Projected Line-ups

Sevilla will have three players out to face Real Madrid: Tomas Vaclik, Marcos Acuna and Sergjo Escudero (all due to injury).

The home side expected line-up is Alfonso Pastor, Jesus Navas, Jules Kounde, Diego Carlos, Karim Rekik, Joan Jordan, Ivan Rakitic, Fernando, Olivier Torres, Luuk de Jong and Munir.

No Eden Hazard (again!) for Real Madrid. Daniel Carvajal and Federico Valverde are also out (all due to injury). The captain Sergio Ramos remains questionable (they have really missed him); if he’s able to return, that would be a huge boost for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid’s expected line-up is Thibaut Courtois, Lucas Vazquez, Raphael Varane, Nacho, Ferland Mendy, Casemiro, Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, Marcos Asensio, Karim Benzema and Rodrygo.

Pick: Draw

Over/Under 2½ goals: Sevilla (5-1-3) | Real Madrid (5-2-3)

Despite each team’s present, Sevilla vs Real Madrid matchups are always special, and usually with a lot of goals. Eight of their last ten encounters went over 2 ½ goals.

They ended 1-0 two times in their last 16 matchups, and their last 0-0 was in the 1993-94 season.

Nowadays, Real Madrid average 1.6 goals per game, while Sevilla average 1.2 goals per game. Both defenses have important absences, which gives the strikers even more opportunities to shine.

Pick: Over 2 ½ goals

Final Score Prediction: Sevilla 2 – Real Madrid 2
