Sevilla and Real Valladolid are set to face off in a La Liga clash at Estadio Ramon on Tuesday evening. Both teams have had a rough start to the season, with only five points each from their first six matches. Sevilla is currently in 14th place, while Real Valladolid is in the 17th position.
Sevilla has struggled in their opening league games, with only two points from four matches. They managed to secure a crucial 1-0 win against Getafe after the September international break but faltered in a 2-1 loss to Alaves. Real Valladolid, on the other hand, started the season with a win against Espanyol but has only managed two points in their last five games.
In terms of head-to-head record, Sevilla has been unbeaten against Real Valladolid in La Liga since December 2012. However, four of their last five matches have ended in draws, including a 1-1 result in their previous encounter.
Sevilla will be without Djibril Sow, Isaac Romero, Marcao, and Albert Sambi Lokonga due to injuries. Real Valladolid will be missing Anuar Tuhami but could see the return of Javi Sanchez from injury and Mario Martin from suspension.
The possible starting lineups for the match could see Nyland, Sanchez, Nianzou, Salas, Pedrosa, Gudelj, Agoume, Saul, Lukebakio, Iheanacho, and Fernandez for Sevilla, while Real Valladolid might field Hein, Perez, Bah, Torres, Rosa, Machis, Meseguer, Perez, Juric, Moro, and Latasa.
We predict a tight contest between the two sides, with a 1-1 draw being the most likely outcome based on their recent performances and head-to-head record.
Overall, the match between Sevilla and Real Valladolid promises to be an intriguing encounter between two teams looking to improve their league positions and secure vital points early in the season.
