Sevilla travel to the Estadio Municipal José Zorrilla on Tuesday night to take on Real Valladolid and will be hoping to collect their first win at that ground in nearly 14 years.
Sevilla collected a valuable three points at the weekend when they came from behind to beat Malaga 2-1 away from home. That win put them into fourth place in the league temporarily before Real Mallorca continued their fine home form this season by disposing of Valencia 3-2 on Sunday to reclaim the coveted Champions League qualifying spot.
Real Valladolid are in deep trouble, as they lie second from bottom and six points away from safety. They will be desperate for a win but the prospect of this happening is slim as Real Valladolid have not scored any goals in their last four league games and only have a sorry 2 home wins to their name this season so far.
Sevilla may be hitting form just at the right time as they are embroiled in a proper dogfight for a top four spot with Mallorca and Athletic Bilbao. But with talent such as Luis Fabiano, Jesus Navas and Freddy Kanoute at their disposal they will be expecting to clinch Champions League football once again next season.
The last match between these two sides in December ended in a 1-1 draw, with Sevilla grateful to a Luis Fabiano penalty for salvaging a point after going a goal behind. It is a result Valladolid will probably be happy to take again, but a point certainly wouldn’t please Sevilla and their new coach.
