Real Madrid v Sevilla Team News

An otherwise-normal La Liga edition with usual suspects Atletico, Real Madrid, Barca occupying top positions. Fringe teams like Sevilla are playing catch up as usual. Barcelona and Real Madrid are tied at 40 points each, 1^st and 2^nd respectively, with Atletico and Sevilla tied at 35 points, 3^rd and 4^th respectively.

The visitors at the Bernabeu will be looking to create a gap with only 4 points separating them from 5^th, while the hosts will be eyeing top spot- and breaking the deadlock with eternal foes Barcelona. The Bernabeu will be roaring as usual and rightly so.

The Blancos are unbeaten in La Liga at home this season (W6 D3) and they will be out to break records. Their ace signing Hazard might be injured but forward Benzema is coming up with all the goods and only stands behind Messi in the scoring charts with 12 goals.

Sevilla have travelled to easier grounds. It might not be their first meeting with Real Madrid but they haven’t won at the Bernabeu in 14 visits with their last win coming ten years ago. Will Los Palanganas break their losing streak?

Besides, they boast the best away record in La Liga with 6 wins in 10 matches. Whether that will count for much in this encounter is up to the jury but Sevilla will not go down easy. They have lost only once in 5 matches and they pack quite a punch having fount the net in all their 5 most recent encounters on the road.

Injured or Suspended Players:

The hosts will be missing the talents of Asensio M. (Knee Injury), Hazard E. (Ankle Injury) and Valverde F. (Red Card).

Visitors Sevilla are only without Ocampos L. (Yellow Cards).

Real Madrid - 1.65
