MATCH PREVIEW

Still alive in the title race, Real Madrid cannot afford to lose any more points in the league.

The reigning champion of La Liga was kicked out of the UCL semi-final by Chelsea. Besides, hosting Sevilla is not an easy task as the latter is within the top four spots on the table and has qualified for UCL next season.

Unbeaten in their last 14 La Liga fixtures, Los Blancos are threatening for the opponents. Their only problem lies in the injuries to the squad, especially to the key players. Their previous encounter in the campaign was at home and they defeated Osasuna with a 2-0 scoreline.

Sevilla reached until the 1/8th finals of the Champions League this season. After exiting the UCL, the visitor was unbeaten for eight games straight in La Liga until the last clash. They will visit on the back of that 0-1 loss at home to the likes of Athletic Bilbao in the previous encounter.

PREDICTION

If there is anything that is close to a constant result in Real Madrid fixtures this season, it is the low-scoring affairs and clean sheets in their league record. Zidane’s men have been more inclined to a defensive game even though they handle the ball more in the middle.

However, Benzema and Hazard are back in the attack which assures a couple of goals for the reigning champions in a vital La Liga fixture. So, the tip for over 1.5 goals by Real Madrid will probably come in handy for the goals area in the encounter.

Furthermore, the match is sizing to be a home win in full-time. Los Blancos enjoys the ground advantage in the middle and with Ramos back in their defense, they have a good shot at winning. Hence, the home win in full-time will probably be the best bet for the punters.
