Sevilla vs Real Madrid – 22/09/2019 Preview

Closing game of Round 5 of Spanish LaLiga, Sevilla vs Real Madrid will be held on Sunday, at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán, in Sevilla. One of the most interesting round games, since Sevilla leading in Primeira Division, while other grands struggling to play even against weak opponents. Read our thoughts about this LaLiga Sevilla vs Real Madrid match, here below.

Already 6 matches in a row, the home team wins head to head matches in LaLiga. During the last 3 seasons, both teams have equal wins and losses amount. Sevilla won the game at home last season against Real Madrid with 3:0 result, however, Real also won over Sevilla at Santiago Bernabeu with 2:0. Teams playing very productive games, as since the 2015 year, in 13 matches only last won finished with less than 2.5 goals.

Sevilla

Sevilla began this season in Spain more confidently than anyone, since they lost points in just one game and even played in a draw against Celta Vigo. The team is now in the first place and strongly plays not only in the local championship but also in Europe. Sevilla plays very solid football in defence, as they conceded only playing against Celta and saved already 3 clean sheets against Alaves, Granada and Espanyol. The team made very big changes in the squad and called Julen Lopetegui to manage. At the beginning of the season, we see that the changes have benefited and Seville is showing excellent results.

Last year Sevilla were one step behind the 4th place and qualification to UEFA Champions League. However, they are one of the main favourites to win the Europa League so far. In the first match in Europe ground, they proved that the bookmakers were right. They faced Qarabag from Azerbaijan on Thursday. Already during the first half seemed that Sevilla will score, however, half finished without goals. The second part were more lucky for Sevillans and they scored 3 goals totally dominating in this match.

Players of Seville from the first games perfectly understood each other and play at a very high level. Even playing against Real Madrid, we believe that it will be very difficult for the guests to overcome such a tactically strong team, which plays as confidently in defence as in an attack.

Real Madrid

Real spent 300m € during this summer transfer window, however, still can’t find the best football. Zinedine Zidane after 4 very successful seasons and 3 in a row Champions League trophies came back to help the team as Cristiano’s Ronaldo era in Real ended. Team needs to find new leaders and play through them because they used to play by this tactic 9 years playing on Cristiano. Now everything changed, and as we can see there should be done a very big work.

In Primeira Division, Real have 8 points after 4 matches. They won against Celta Vigo and Levante, however, failed to win over Villarreal and Valladolid. Madridistas already conceded 6 goals and statistic shows that Thibout Courtois can’t save clean sheet already 7 months in a row. Keylor Navas showing much better results in Paris Saint Germain. By the way, these teams met in the first round of UEFA Champions League. Real Madrid failed to shot on goal and conceded 3 goals playing at Parc des Princes. They lost this match with a devastating result, which showed their true shape and performance. PSG even without main attacking players achieved this shocking result.

Marcelo, Luka Modric and Marco Asensio will miss next match due to injuries.
