Fresh from their midweek success, Atletico Madrid travel to the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan for Saturday’s Spanish La Liga clash against struggling Sevilla.

The hosts remain firmly locked in a relegation battle and cannot afford any more dropped points. Atletico, meanwhile, are pushing to secure a top-three finish and will see this as another important opportunity.

Sevilla News

Sevilla come into this encounter on a worrying five-game winless streak, having lost each of their last three matches. Their struggles continued with a shock 1-0 defeat to bottom side Real Oviedo, leaving Los Nervionenses sitting 17th in the division and only two points above the relegation zone.

Form has been a major concern for Luis García’s men, who have lost four of their last 10 league matches while managing just two wins in that spell. They have at least shown some attacking threat, scoring in eight of those games. But defensive issues remain clear, with only one clean sheet recorded. Home performances have also dipped badly, with Sevilla still searching for their first victory in five matches at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium.

A slow start has often hurt them too, as they have conceded the opening goal in four of their last five fixtures. During that run, they have also conceded at least twice in three matches. Nigerian striker Akor Adams was on target the last time they scored at home and could find the net here to help end their losing streak. While results have been poor, Sevilla games have still offered some entertainment, with over 2.5 goals landing in four of their last 10 outings.

Atletico Madrid News

Atletico Madrid secured arguably their biggest win of the season on Wednesday, beating 10-man Barcelona 2-0 in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final. Julian Alvarez and Alexander Sorloth were both on target for the Rojiblancos at Camp Nou.

Diego Simeone’s men sit fourth in La Liga, just one point behind third place. With the top two positions looking increasingly out of reach, they are focused on securing a top-three finish for the second consecutive campaign. Recent form supports that ambition, as Atleti have won six of their last 10 matches and have scored in nine of those fixtures. However, defensive vulnerabilities remain, with just one clean sheet recorded in their last four games.

The victory over Barcelona also ended a three-game away losing streak. Atletico now head into this clash with renewed confidence, having scored at least twice in each of their last three away matches. Fast starts have also been a feature of their recent performances, with Atleti opening the scoring in six of their last seven fixtures. Ademola Lookman could be one to watch after scoring in his last away league appearance, while Atletico have also recorded over 2.5 goals in six of their last eight matches.

Head to Head

Atletico Madrid have the upper hand in this fixture, winning seven of the last 10 meetings. Sevilla have managed just one victory during that period and are currently on a three-match losing streak against the Rojiblancos. Atleti were dominant in the reverse fixture back in November, claiming a comfortable 3-0 victory.

Verdict

Sevilla v Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid’s quick starts have been a major strength in recent weeks. Having scored the opening goal in six of their last seven matches, they are well backed to take the lead once again here.

Atleti have kept only one clean sheet in their last four games. Sevilla have found the net in eight of their last 10, making BTTS an appealing option. Atleti have also scored at least twice in their last three meetings with Sevilla, and that attacking trend could continue in this clash.
