Command Analysis
Sevilla
SpainCurrent form
The international break may have come at a good time for Sevilla after they lost their last two La Liga games to nil. Hoping to avoid a third successive league defeat without scoring for the first time in more than 20 years, Sevilla can at least take some solace in the fact that their current tally of 15 points is a slight improvement on their previous two campaigns, in which they were at least three points worse at this stage. Sevilla boss García Pimienta knows that getting a result against Rayo Vallecano is not a given, as the hosts have beaten a team they have only beaten in one of their last five matches.
Disqualifications and injuries
Out of action are Niguez (muscle injury), Ejuke (muscle injury). Bade (injury), Ejuke (muscle injury), Nyland (ankle injury) and Idumbo (ankle injury).
Interesting trends for betting
- Sevilla Isaac Romero may feel he deservedly got a goal as no player in Europe top five leagues has attempted more shots (24) without scoring in the league this season
- Sevilla are on a run of 13 home games without a draw, and three of their last four games have been won by one goal
Tentative line-up: Fernandez - Sanchez, Nianzou, Martinez, Pedrosa - Bueno, Carmona, Sow - Lukebakio, Romero.
Rayo Vallecano
SpainCurrent form
A point ahead of their hosts heading into the match, Rayo Vallecano head here having lost as many games in their previous three league outings as they had in their opening nine. Those recent fluctuations have left the away side worse off in terms of points than they have been at the same stage in each of their three La Liga seasons, perhaps fuelling early relegation fears. Improving their woeful away form could be key to a fifth successive season in the top flight, with the Red Stripes having managed just two of their last 15 league trips.
Disqualifications and injuries
Espino will not be able to take part in the fight today (foot injury).

1.88Tip and bets
In this match, no one expects an abundance of attacks and scoring chances except us - both clubs traditionally score very little in personal duels, while the potential of the opponents is clearly not revealed even half. Most likely, the desire to get points will force both teams to go forward from the first to the last seconds, which may ultimately affect the performance. We expect a high percentage of the realized chances.
Our forecast is total over 2.5 goals and we bet on it with odds of 2.43
Bet on the outcome
We believe that today Rayo Vallecano will not be able to hold back the onslaught of the Nervionese, who can take full control of the ball. We will take a risk and bet on the hosts and their confident, long-awaited victory in this game due to maximum dedication, and the capital club away performance is not impressive.
Forecast - Asian handicap (-1) for Sevilla and we bet on it with odds of 4.10
Yellow Card Betting
This fight will most likely not be an exception and may lead to a lot of violations, some of which may be severely condemned by the referee. Moreover, in two of the last four fights, the referee did not show less than four yellow cards.
Forecast - total yellow cards over four. This option can be found for 1.83
