This is a match in the Spanish Primeira Division between Sevilla and Atletico Madrid. The match is gonn' be taking place at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium, and it is without a doubt the game of the day in the 18th Spanish League fixture. For today's game the both sides, Andalusians and Colchoneros will surely be coming to this game with the expectation of getting the full maximum three points to themselves, in other to mount a serious title challenge on the current leader, FC Barcelona. In their last five matches played together, the Colchoneros are considered the favorite, as they have managed 3 wins and 2 defeats. The last time they met at the Pizjuan Stadium in the Primeira Division was on 25-02-2018, and the game ended in 2-5 victory for Atletico Madrid.
SEVILLA
Sevilla are currently in the 3rd position, with 32 points, having managed to record 9 wins, 5 draws and 3 defeats in their last 17th league matches played. The Filigrees are playing so great this season as they have performed collectively much more than expected and due to their style of play this season, The Filigrees has become the team that is best deployed collectively under 3.5.2 and a collective idea well made, which has transformed the Sanchez Pizjuan into a fort. In their previous match, they drew 1-1 away from home against strong madrid outskirts side Leganes. For todays game Sevilla will sure be hoping to get a positive result against a side who are yet to lose a single game in their last ten matches, in all competitions. However, they would try and capitalize on the fact that the guest are not so good as a guest, as they have managed to win just twice on the road in their last five away matches.
ATLETICO MADRID
Atletico Madrid are currently in the 2nd position on the table log, with 34 points after 9 wins, 7 draws and 1 defeat in their last 17th league matches played. The guest, Colchoneros are coming to this game fully motivated after ending 2018 campaign with a 1-0 victory at home against Espanyol. The Colchoneros will surely be counting on their solid defense today, as they are facing one of the side that have scored at least one goal in their last six matches played in the league. However, the Colchoneros can also boast of their defensive duties, as they have only let in 4 goals in their last six matches played, in all competitions. For today's game, Atletico Madrid will be hoping history repeats itself, so that they can easily pounce on their opponents, Sevilla as they did in their last game, which they won 2-5 comfortably away from home. The goals scorer of the match was Pablo Sarabia 85' and Nolito (89') for Sevilla and by Diego Costa (29 '), A. Griezmann with a Hattrick (42', 51 'and 81') and Koke (65 '). to Atletico Madrid.
PRE-MATCH FACT
- Seven of Atlético's eight away games have produced less than 2.5 goals.
- Sevilla have won their last 6 home matches in La Liga.
- Sevilla have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 matches against Atletico in all competitions.
- Atletico Madrid are undefeated in their last 14 matches in La Liga.
PREDICTION
This is match between the 2nd and 3rd place, to which I believe its definitely gonn' be a tough clash between both teams. Although, the guest are considered the slight favorite for todays game due to the fact that they hold a slight Head-to-Head advantage against the Filigrees. However, the host are performing well at home this season, as they have only conceded just four goals in their last ten home league games, at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium. So for this game, i'm certain the both teams will definitely be playing it safe here and they would probably be playing a mindful defensive game to avoid a slip up against league leaders, Barcelona. So with this, I believe the best bet option for this match is to stake on Under 2.5, because there wouldn't be alot of scoring chances.
