Sevilla and Levante are at opposite ends of the La Liga table coming into this round of fixtures in Spain. The hosts could go top of the league with a win, while Levante desperately need the points to get out of the relegation places.
La Liga Preview
Sevilla come into this home fixture against Levante in third place in the La Liga table. They are currently three behind Real Sociedad, and level on points with Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid. Meanwhile, Levante are in 18th, having picked up just five points so far this term.
Sevilla’s challenge this season will be to finish in a Champions League place. However, if they are to do that, they will likely need to piece together a run of wins, as they will come under pressure for those positions from the likes of Sociedad, Barcelona and the Madrid clubs.
Their recent form has been fairly strong, as they have won three from four, with their only defeat coming against Granada before the international break. They returned to domestic action with a 1-0 victory on the road against Celta Vigo last week, with Rafa Mir scoring the winner early in the second half.
There isn’t much that Javier Pereira will like about what he has seen from his side so far this season, as Levante are without a win and sit in the relegation places. They are one of just two teams in the league that are yet to win this season, with the other being Getafe, who are rock-bottom.
Levante have lost three of their last four, but at least put a point on the board in their last fixture. They played out a scrappy 0-0 draw against Getafe in their first game following the international break. That result would have been a disappointment, as they are only the second team that Getafe have taken a point off this season.
Sevilla vs Levante Head to Head
Sevilla have an excellent record in this fixture, as they have won five of the previous six against Levante. They have won their last four against their rivals this weekend without conceding a goal. Both matches last season were won 1-0 by Sevilla.
Sevilla vs Levante Prediction
It’s hard to give Levante too much of a chance this weekend, as they are without a win in La Liga, and struggled to break down a Getafe side that have been weak since day one. Sevilla should ease to the three points on Sunday with a comfortable scoreline.
