OddsDigger’s Tip

This summer has been one of change for Sevilla, with former coach Jorge Sampaoli leaving his job as coach for the chance to manage the Argentina national team. Eduardo Berizzo will take Los Nervionenses into La Liga, but the future looks bright.

Match Preview

Ahead of our Sevilla vs Espanyol preview, the hosts are looking to be favourites, given their exemplary home form at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan. They are unbeaten in their last 13 top-flight games there, with Barcelona the last team to earn three points against them, making their home football odds of 1.62 look good value with BetWay.

The hosts have also conceded just two goals in their last four home games, which will make for a tough test for Espanyol. Quique Sanchez Flores’ men and organised and well drilled, but they may struggle to get back in the game if they fall behind early on.

The away side ended last season in excellent form on the road, winning three times and drawing once, but all of their positive results came against teams in the relegation battle. Sevilla are much tougher, affecting out Sevilla vs Espanyol predictions.

Between February and April of last campaign, Espanyol really struggled on the road against harder opponents, losing against Real Madrid, Villarreal and Athletic Bilbao, while also drawing against Celta Vigo and Eibar. Sevilla should be capable of doing the same.

One clean sheet in their last nine games away from Catalonia also suggests that Flores’ unit may not get things their own way in Seville. Berizzo has strengthened his squad with attacking options such as Nolito, Jesus Navas, Ever Banega and Luis Muriel, who all provide a threat.

Sevilla vs Espanyol Prediction and Betting Advice

Sevilla don’t have any big injury concerns to contend with, and their new signings should be ready to be injected from the bench when required. The home fans should be optimistic and the Saturday football tips reflect that.

According to our Sevilla vs Espanyol picks, the home side should be confident that they can find a way through against a group of visitors that have struggled to plug the gaps on their La Liga travels.
