Head-to-head statistics Sevilla - Atletico Madrid
Sevilla Team Overview
🔴 The "Nervionenses" have been unable to secure a win in their last five matches. Over their past nine encounters, the team from the same-named city has managed just one victory. Currently, Sevilla sit in 17th place in the league standings, a mere two points above the relegation zone. It's equally important to note that Luis Garcia's side have the worst defensive record in the league, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per game. Furthermore, Sevilla's performances at home have been far from impressive, with only 16 points collected from 15 games, ranking them 19th in the league.
⚪ In the last round of the national championship, Sevilla were powerless against league underdogs Real Oviedo (0-1). A lackluster attacking display by the "Nervionenses," compounded by Tanguy Nianzou's early red card, led to their downfall. A glance at the expected goals ratio-0.67 to 0.47 in Sevilla's favor-tells part of the story, yet Luis Garcia's men failed to trouble the opposing goalkeeper. Sevilla's top scorer in this season's La Liga is Eikor Adams, with seven goals in 25 appearances.

Atletico Madrid Team Overview
⚪ Atletico Madrid don't have much left to fight for in La Liga, aside from securing a top-three finish. The "Colchoneros" have essentially guaranteed their spot in next season's Champions League, so their main focus now is performing well in the current Champions League campaign. Let's take a look at Atletico's average performance stats in this season's La Liga: they score 1.67 goals per game while conceding 1. Alexander Sørloth leads the team in scoring with 10 goals in 29 matches.
🔴 Midweek, Atletico achieved a significant victory, defeating Barcelona 2-0 in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals. This success was aided by an early sending-off for the "Blaugrana," but it's important not to downplay Atletico's achievements. Diego Simeone got his tactics spot on-the capital club excelled in positional defense and made effective transitions from defense to attack. However, last weekend, the "Colchoneros" fell to the same Barcelona (1-2) in La Liga's 30th round.

Latest news
Sevilla
🎤 Following a disheartening 0-1 defeat to Real Oviedo, Sevilla's head coach Luis Garcia shared his thoughts on his team's performance: "I didn't expect us to play like this, not because of the result, and not because we had to play with ten men for so long. Until their goal, they hadn't even had a shot on target, and we felt comfortable. There was a penalty on Nemanja that wasn't given, and a foul on Sow that could have been a red card. We tried to salvage the game even with ten men, but we couldn't. We need to regroup and get back to work on Saturday-there's no other option. If this had been the first game, it would be different, but with eight matches left, we must pick up points against any opponent."
❌ In their upcoming match, Sevilla's coaching staff will be without Jose Angel Carmona and Nianzou Kouassi (both suspended), as well as Marcao (knee injury).
Atletico Madrid
🎤 After securing their first victory over Barcelona at Camp Nou in 20 years, Diego Simeone spoke to the media: "We've never won at Camp Nou before. It's incredibly challenging here. They might be one of the best teams in Europe, alongside PSG and Bayern. Through teamwork, we managed to strike at the right moment. The second goal boosted our confidence-it's a pity we couldn't fully capitalize on our advantage. I could recount countless stories of matches where we had 30 shots on goal and didn't score. In football, the final score is what matters. Today, we were fully focused. That hasn't always been the case in other games."
❌ Among the unavailable players for Atletico's upcoming league match are Pablo Barrios (muscle injury), Johnny Cardoso (muscle injury), Jose Maria Gimenez (leg injury), Nico Gonzalez (suspension), David Gantzko (leg injury), Koke (suspension), and Jan Oblak (muscle injury).
⚽ Goal Prediction
It's crucial to note that in 6 of Sevilla's last 8 matches, no more than 2 goals were scored. This upcoming encounter is particularly significant for the Nervionenses, as they aim to secure their place in the top tier of Spanish football. Our editorial team anticipates a cautious approach from both sides, likely resulting in a low-scoring affair. Our pick: under 2.5 goals.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Sevilla aren't known for utilizing numerous flank attacks during their games. The Nervionenses favor a direct style of play with many vertical passes. Let's compare the average number of corners each team has earned this season: 6.5 versus 4.9, with Atletico having the upper hand. In head-to-head matchups, the Colchoneros also dominate this statistic: 5.5 to 4.5. Our pick: Atletico to win on corners with a -1.5 handicap.
🚀 Player Statistic Bet
We suggest focusing on the discipline of Sevilla's players. The Nervionenses often engage in contact-heavy football, leading to numerous fouls. Lucien Agoume leads the league in yellow cards, with 10 in 26 games. The French midfielder served a suspension in the previous round and is ready to take the field at Wanda Metropolitano. Our pick: Lucien Agoume to commit more than 2 fouls at odds of 1.57*.
😱 Risky Bet
Sevilla's current form is so disappointing that expecting any positive outcomes in the remaining matches is challenging. A mid-season managerial change further highlights the club's poor management. Despite Atletico being the away side, they should have enough resources to secure a confident victory. Our choice: Atletico to win with a -1 handicap at odds of 5.32*.
👀 If the Match Doesn't Go as Planned
If there's an unexpected red card or an early goal, the game could take an unforeseen turn, potentially leading to more goals. Given Sevilla's urgent need for points, this scenario could very well unfold. Our pick: over 2 goals at odds of 1.58*.
*Odds are indicative and may vary across different bookmakers.
Editorial Prediction
Our editorial team doesn't foresee a positive outcome for the home side. This is influenced not only by the current form of each team but also by their head-to-head history. Furthermore, the "Nervionenses" can't boast high efficiency in their home matches. These points lead to the conclusion that Diego Simeone's squad has a strong chance of securing a convincing victory. We predict a final score of 0-2, with the key bet being Atletico will not lose.
