In the fifth round of the Spanish Primera, Sevilla will host Valencia. Things are really bad for the visitors - last place in the table and only one goal scored in four matches. On the contrary, the hosts have taken a step forward and are now walking next to the European Cup zone. Is a sensation possible on Friday, September 11th? The answer is in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Sevilla
Current form
Sevilla was able to stay in the Spanish Primera and, as it turned out, for good reason. Luis Garcia's players are playing much better this season and have excellent chances to return to the European Cup competition. In the first two rounds, they managed to win over Rayo Vallecano (2:1) and Athletic (3:1), and then the hosts nevertheless slowed down, losing to Atletico (1:3) and missing two points in the away match with Espanyol (1:1). Nevertheless, the team shares sixth place with Atletico and can rise higher if they beat Valencia at home from last place.
Disqualifications and injuries
Vargas will not play due to injury, and Sangante was eliminated in the last round.
Interesting betting trends
In three of the last four matches, the hosts were eliminated.
Both teams have scored in each of Sevilla's last five matches.
Approximate line-up: Vlachodimos - Suazo, Salas, Kastrin, Iglesias Sanchez - Kochorashvili, Agume - Ejuke, Stassin, Sierra - Ure
Valencia
Current form
But Valencia can be called the main loser of the start of the season so far. Last season, the guests were a solid middleweight, even managed to take a place in the top 10, and now they have reached the last place. The team can't afford to add absolutely anything to the asset - the game is terrible both defensively and offensively. The season started with a goalless draw against Celta (0-0). It's unlikely that the fans were happy with this outcome, but they didn't know that it would only get worse.
In the following home matches, Carlos Corberan's team was defeated by Betis (0:1) and defeated by Barcelona (0:5). In the only away match so far, the bats scored a goal, but ingloriously lost to the newcomer of the tournament, Deportivo (1:3). With a goal difference of 1:9, the club takes the last place in the Primera standings.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kanos, Kopete, Diahabi, Fulkye, Lopez Noguerol, Rioja, Rodriguez and Sadik remain in the infirmary and will not help the team.
Interesting betting trends
In each of the last two matches, Valencia conceded two goals before the break.
In each of the last six face-to-face matches, Valencia has avoided defeat from Sevilla.
Valencia already has nowhere to go, it is necessary to win in order to leave the relegation zone, so for sure the guests will actively attack in the duel with Sevilla, which unsuccessfully held the last two matches. The guests can find their chance at someone else's gate, but the hosts will not sit on the defensive either. In all rounds, the Nervionians exchanged goals with their rivals, and both clubs are sure to score this time.
Valencia can't find their game in any way, and the injury list is still crowded, so Carlos Corberan is very limited in his choice of starting line-up. Sevilla has no such problems, and the support of the fans should help the Andalusians achieve victory. Most likely, there will be no sensation here.
Our betting tip is that Sevilla will win in 2.07
Betting on corners
The teams have different tasks, but so far they are clearly not in the table in the places where they plan to finish the season. Most likely, in a face-to-face match, the opponents will only fight for victory, so we are waiting for attacking football with a lot of corners.
Our betting tip is a total of more than 8.5 corners in 1.93
