Real Madrid and Sevilla meet in a match in the round with the number 20 in La Liga. The confrontation will be played on Saturday, from 15:00, on the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
Zinedine Zidane’s team is unbeaten in the last 16 games played in all competitions. The previous week, the second Spanish team managed to pass a new trophy, the Super Cup of Spain. In the semifinals, Real passed with a score of 3-1 against Valencia, for in the final to defeat their rivals from Atletico, with a score of 4-1 after the away shots.
Sevilla are also in a form of envy, with only two failures suffered in the last 17 matches played in all competitions. The last game of the group led by Julen Lopetegui was played four days ago, in the Spanish Cup, where the Andalusians prevailed with the score of 5-0 on the field of Escobedo.
– The previous direct duel of this season ended with the victory of the “Galactic”, 1-0 on Estadio Ramón Sanchez Pizjuan;
– The match of September 22 concluded a series of six games in a row in which the hosts managed to win;
– The last victory of Sevilla at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu dates from December 2008, score 4-3;
– In 12 of the 19 direct duels of the championship, disputed in Madrid, both teams scored;
Real Madrid: Courtois – Carvajal, Varane, Militao, Mendy – Kroos, Casemiro, Modric – Isco – Bale, Jovic;
Absent: Marco Asensio, Eden Hazard (injured), Federico Valverde (suspended), Sergio Ramos, Karim Benzema (uncertain);
Sevilla: Vaclik – Navas, Carlos, Carrico, Escudero – Banega, Fernando, Jordan – Vazquez, Jong, Haddadi;
Absent: Lucas Ocampos (suspended);
The average of goals scored in Real’s championship matches is 2.5 per game, while Seville’s is 2.2 goals. The last three straight duels ended with a maximum of three goals scored, which we bet also this time, taking into account the absences from the attack of the hosts.
