Match Preview

European commitments will have an effect on this contest, ahead of our Sevilla FC vs Atletico Madrid preview and soccer odds, with the home side needing to first pit their wits against Manchester United in the Champions League midweek. Inevitably, this will lead to tired legs.

Sevilla boast a terrific record at home in La Liga over the last year or so, but Atletico Madrid are in excellent form themselves and come into this weekend fresher than their competitors. They have the second leg of a Europa League tie to think about themselves, but they already have a healthy aggregate advantage from the first leg.

Our Sevilla FC vs Atletico Madrid predictions back Los Nervionenses to cling onto a point, which makes going for a draw in our weekend La Liga tips the way to go. Vincenzo Montella has been able to get a good reaction out of his squad recently and that should show through once again.

Given that Sevilla don’t appear to have the firepower to challenge for the Champions League trophy, they need to put their strongest efforts into finishing in the top four in the Spanish top flight, and that motivation should pull them through a difficult fortnight, both physically and mentally.

Sevilla FC vs Atletico Madrid Prediction and Betting Advice

Atletico Madrid have scored in six of their last seven away games in La Liga, with Diego Simeone’s men always getting the balance right between defending well and offering a threat on the counter-attack. Antoine Griezmann has been looking very sharp indeed and alongside Diego Costa, the two should be able to cause a lot of problems for a shaky Sevilla back four.

Unibet offer the best odds on both teams hitting the back of the net, which is something that carries value given how good Atleti’s defensive record has been this campaign. Simeone’s men have let in just nine goals cross 24 match days, but Sevilla have got some good offensive players in form of their own.

Pablo Sarabia has been in the terrific shape of late, while Wissam Ben Yedder has stepped into the void with a goal since Luis Muriel’s injury. Montella should be optimistic that his Sevilla side can cause some issues for an Atleti side that are normally very assured while on the back foot.

Our Sevilla FC vs Atletico Madrid bets back the home side to scrape another result at home, given that only Real Betis have been able to beat them in La Liga in the last calendar year. The Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan is a fortress and Atleti will definitely be one of the biggest tests to have to go up against Los Nervionenses in Andalusia.

Winner have the best odds on a draw in Seville, with Atleti still having lost just one game this season in La Liga. Given that Sevilla have a knack for hitting the back of the net against their own fans, however, with plenty of teams breathing down their neck in the race for Europe, at least a share of the spoils is required.

Our Sevilla FC vs Atletico Madrid betting tips suggest that the home side will be capable of holding Los Colchoneros to a result, despite the fact that they have two competitions to be worrying about within the space of a week.
