Command Analysis
Sevilla
SpainCurrent form
No fewer than 12 teams drew in the opening match of Spain’s La Liga. https://www.sevillafc.es/en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sevilla were one of those dozen, but fans will be left unhappy as the Red and Whites twice let leads slip. New coach García Pimienta described the result against the team he coached last season as “losing two points” on his debut, but he hopes to see his side bounce back from that disappointment after this matchday. Pimienta won both of his duels against Villarreal last season when he was at Las Palmas, with the islanders the only team to do the league double in head-to-head duels last term. His place on the bench should bolster faith in a Sevilla side that have won an impressive 11 of their last 18 home encounters.
Disqualifications and injuries
Out of the game: Lokonga (muscle injury), Suso (knee injury).
Interesting trends for betting
- Sevilla's Isaac Romero could make an early impact given that three of his last four La Liga goals have come before the 25th minute.
Isaac failed to impress fans over the weekend, but Pimienta sees serious potential in the player, and an early goal could ultimately be the difference between the two and a win for the Sevillians.
- Sevilla have won four and lost their last three matches at home
The positive statistics at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan were broken at the end of last season and the trust of the fans was undermined, but it was this stadium that brought many resounding victories, which is what we hope for today.
Tentative line-up : Niland - Sanchez, Nianzou, Martinez, Pedrosa - Bueno, Carmona, Sow - Lukebakio, Ocampos, Romero.
Villarreal
SpainCurrent form
Villarreal repeated the unwanted feat of Sevilla, who lost the lead twice in the first round and ended the match with Atletico Madrid in a draw (2:2). The head coach of the Yellow Submarine, Marcelino, considered it a "fair result", but complained about the tight schedule of matches in August, as a result of which the Yellows will play their first four games in less than two weeks. However, he noted that he will try to qualitatively experiment with the workload of the players. It is worth noting that the main problem of the guests is the defensive line, which misses an unacceptably large number of goals.
Disqualifications and injuries
Pedraza (injury), Foyth (knee injury) and Suarez (muscle injury) will not be able to take to the football field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Villarreal's Arnaut Danhuma scored the first goal of the first half
The player ended his nasty run - all eight of his goals for the club were scored after the break.
- Apart from Barcelona and Real Madrid, Villarreal coach Marcelino has lost more coaching matches against Sevilla (13) than any other club in La Liga.
This is another sign in favor of the hosts, who can pull themselves together and take three points from a worthy, but quite passable opponent.
- Villarreal have conceded 12 goals in their last six league games
The coach has something to work on – a completely leaky defense is unacceptable, and the result of the first game confirms the unpleasant statistics for the “yellows”.
Estimated composition : Conde - Kiko Femenia, Albiol, Bailly, Cardona - Terrats, Comesana, Pareja, Pino - Pepe, Danjuma

1.88Tip and bets
Today we are on the side of the hosts, who looked good in the first game, but were a little unlucky. Villarreal is good, but the terrible statistics of head-to-head and away duels may not have the best effect on the players. In addition, we believe that the support of the stands can play a decisive role and give a chance to get the first victory of the season and three important points.
Our prediction is a victory for Sevilla and we are betting on it at 2.38
Bet on the outcome
We believe that Villarreal will not be able to resist today. Sevilla will play with the support of the stands, and we believe in the head coach, who is a cut above Marcelino, which he has proven more than once in face-to-face duels. In addition, the hosts have won three of the last four face-to-face matches at this arena, which we expect today, and with a score that is comfortable for the fans.
Prediction: Sevilla win by two goals at 6.90
Betting on yellow cards
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.
