Sevilla

LLLLDL ⚠

Sevilla will be looking to improve on their last outing here after a 1-0 La Liga loss in their previous game against Osasuna.

In that game, Sevilla had 42% possession and 12 attempts at goal with 3 of them on target. On the other side, Osasuna got 9 shots on goal with 2 of them on target. Rubén García (25') scored for Osasuna.

Sevilla have really been misfiring in recent times. Their ‘goals for’ figure equals just 3 versus opposition teams during the course of their previous 6 outings. In those games, Sevilla have also seen the number of goals against them come to 8. We will just have to find out whether or not that trend can be continued on here.

Heading into this contest, Sevilla have not won at home in their last 7 matches in the league. Things will have to change soon.

Leganés

LLDLDD 📉

In their last game, Leganés drew 1-1 in the La Liga match with Girona FC.

In that game, Leganés managed 32% possession and 7 shots on goal with 1 of them on target. The scorer for Leganés was Munir El Haddadi (92'). At the other end, Girona had 8 shots at goal with 3 on target. Cristhian Stuani (54') was the scorer for Girona FC.

The stats tell the story, and Leganés have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, letting opponents get 9 goals in total. In defence, Leganés have been far from perfect.

Heading into this fixture, Leganés are without a win away from home in their last 7 league games.

🗞️ Team News: Sevilla

Akor Adams (Muscle injury), Tanguy Nianzou (Hamstring injury), Rubén Vargas (Hamstring injury) and Albert Sambi Lokonga (Hamstring injury) will be missing for Sevilla boss Joaquín Caparrós.

We think that Sevillistas will probably line up in a 4-1-4-1 formation for this game and select O. Haaskjold Nyland, Jose Angel Carmona, Loic Bade, Kike Salas, Adria Pedrosa, Lucien Agoume, Suso, Gerard Fernandez, Saul Niguez, Dodi Lukebakio and Alvaro Pascual.

📋 Team News: Leganés

Leganés manager Borja Jiménez has a number of players out of action. Enric Franquesa (Cruciate ligament injury) and Borna Barisic (Cruciate ligament tear) are those who can’t be considered.

We are inclined to think that Leganés seem most likely to utilise a 3-5-2 lineup using Marko Dmitrovic, Sergio Gonzalez, Jorge Saenz, Javier Hernandez, Duk, Darko Brasanac, Julian Chicco, Renato Tapia, Juan Cruz, Daniel Raba and Munir El Haddadi.

💭 Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Sevilla are likely to stay in control for long periods of time and should be able to convert a few of the chances that they create.

However, Leganés will not find it easy getting on the scoresheet but we do think it’s quite likely that they will be getting enough chances to score, too.

Therefore, we are anticipating a controlled 3-1 winning score for Sevilla at the end of this one.
