Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan

Sevilla vs Valencia

Match preview

Sevilla finished fourth in three successive seasons between 2019 and 2022, but have finished 12th and 14th in their last two campaigns and are again in the bottom half of the table after 18 games of 2024-25.

Last season's 14th-place finish was Sevilla's worst top-flight finish since they were relegated in 1999-2000, but new head coach Garcia Pimienta has also struggled to get the team going this term.

Los Nervionenses have won six, drawn four and lost eight of their 18 league games this term, picking up 22 points to sit 14th in the standings, seven points above the relegation zone.

Sevilla's last La Liga match ended in a 4-2 defeat at the hands of Real Madrid on 22 December, before they suffered a shock 4-1 defeat at the hands of Almeria in the last 32 of the Copa del Rey last time out.

However, the hosts have been relatively strong at the Estadio Ramon this season, picking up 16 points from nine games, and they will welcome a Valencia side who have yet to win a La Liga match on their travels in 2024-25.
