LDWDWW

Valencia are hoping to win again after their last result, the 1-2 La Liga victory against Real Madrid.

In that match, Valencia managed 35% possession and 10 shots on goal with 2 on target. For Valencia, the goals were scored by Mouctar Diakhaby (15') and Hugo Duro (95'). At the other end, Real Madrid had 21 attempts at goal with 9 on target. Vinicius Júnior (50') was the scorer for Real Madrid.

It’s been all too rare in recent games that Valencia have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Valencia have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 games, shipping 9 goals on the way. We will just have to find out whether or not that trend can be sustained here.

Their prior results show that Valencia:

• have not been beaten in the league by Sevilla in their last 3 games.
• haven't won against Sevilla in their previous 2 league games.
• have not been beaten in their last 2 home league matches.

ℹ️ Team News: Valencia

Almost everyone can be considered, as there’s just a single fitness concern for the Valencia gaffer Carlos Corberán to be concerned about from a near full-strength squad. Thierry Correia (Cruciate ligament tear) is sidelined.

It’s our opinion that Los Che could use a 4-2-3-1 formation, handing starts to Giorgi Mamardashvili, Dimitri Foulquier, Cristhian Mosquera, Cesar Tarrega, Jose Gaya, Enzo Barrenechea, Javier Guerra, Luis Rioja, Andre Almeida, Diego Lopez and Umar Sadiq.

🗞️ Team News: Sevilla

Sevilla boss Francisco García Pimienta has to currently contend with reduced team options. Rubén Vargas (Hamstring injury), Tanguy Nianzou (Hamstring injury) and Akor Adams (Muscle injury) are not able to play.

We reckon that Sevillistas will likely make use of a 4-3-3 lineup by sending out O. Haaskjold Nyland, Jose Angel Carmona, Loic Bade, Kike Salas, Nemanja Gudelj, Albert Sambi Lokonga, Lucien Agoume, Djibril Sow, Dodi Lukebakio, Isaac Romero and Gerard Fernandez.

🔮 Prediction

When taking all factors into account, Sevilla should have enough to find the back of the net against this Valencia side, but that is unlikely to be enough to avoid a loss.

We are anticipating both teams to score in a 2-1 winning margin for Valencia by the time that the referee blows the final whistle. Hopefully this is a good one.
