Sevilla vs Espanyol 04.05.2023 Prediction: La Liga

Match Overview

While some might feel that this is a rather lopsided encounter in favour of Sevilla, it needs to be reminded that Espanyol, despite being in the drop zone, are well known to counterattack whenever things are not going their way. At the time of writing, though, they are ranked in the 18th position of the league table with 31 points to their name. They are all but set to get relegated.

Key Highlights

There have been a total of 29 games recorded between the two teams in the past, out of which Sevilla have won eighteen. Espanyol emerged victorious on five occasions while the rest of the six matches were played out as drawn encounters. However, it is worth noting that out of the last five matches played between the two teams, Sevilla have won only three. 

Injury Report

Sevilla will have to make do without the likes of Tanguy Nianzou, Marcao and Joan Jordan for this game. On the other hand, Espanyol will be without the services of Martin Brathwaite and Jose Gragera. The former has been suspended while the latter is injured.  

Prediction

Sevilla, who are ranked in the 11th position of the league table with 41 points inside their kitty, are the overwhelming favourites to win this game. Espanyol do not appear to be well-equipped to deal with the challenges that might come their way on Thursday. Their defence seems to be extremely porous, and Sevilla can make the most of this lapse in the visiting side's walls. We expect Sevilla to win this game!
