LaLiga – Seville face Atletico Madrid

Seville at home against Atleti – Saturday – 6:30pm GMT – The Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.

Currently sitting in seventh place, Atleti will travel to Seville, who are eight places lower in the League and sit in fifteenth place.

Seville’s LaLiga season, has so far seen them gain five points, going into this game

Only a positive result will be acceptable for Julen Lopetegui’s Seville, having drawn away to Villarreal, which itself followed a loss to Espanyol. A win would go some way to restoring the team’s confidence.

Also, suffering three losses in six meetings is a terrible run of form for any club, Julen Lopetegui’s Seville will know this and will be hopeful of turning it around. Their position is fifteenth in the League and they have five points, that is, 1W, 3L and 2D having won one game, drawn two games, and lost three fixtures.

Seville have drawn one game and lost one game of their two League matches at home this season.

A win in this fixture would take Seville’s points to 8 in the League.

It is likely that three key players will miss Saturday’s fixture, which is something of a concern for Julen Lopetegui and his Seville team.

Atletico Madrid have so far accrued 10 points in this season of the LaLiga

Only a positive result will be acceptable for Diego Simeone’s men, following their recent home defeat at the hands of R Madrid in their last match.

Also, Atleti keep finding ways to win, having secured three victories in their last six games is astonishing this season. Now they have 3 matches won, 2 games lost and 1 duels drawn; that’s why they currently sit in seventh place, with a total of 10 points having won three meetings, drawn one game, and lost two matches.

Atleti will travel to Seville with a win record on the road that is quite unremarkable, with two victories and one draw.

A victory for Atletico Madrid would put them on 13 points.

Good Attacking Performance

This has been a good season so far for Atleti, in terms of goals scored (10). This season, their stand-out attacking players have been Alvaro Morata (3), Antoine Griezmann (2), and Rodrigo De Paul (1). Atleti have conceded six goals.

Atleti are no strangers this season to illness and injury and Diego Simeone is concerned that Saturday’s fixture could see him without two of his key players
