SPAIN LA LIGA

VALENCIA VS SEVILLA

MATCH STATS

  • Valencia have four straight wins with a ridiculous 17 goals scored in the process. Only Barcelona can better their average of 2.63 goals per game this season in La Liga .
  • Valencia are unbeaten at the Mestalla in La Liga this season (W3 D1), keeping a clean sheet in three of these four games.
  • The sides from Valencia have the highest shot conversion rate in La Liga this season (26.92%).
  • Valencia have scored at least 3 goals in their last 4 matches (La Liga).
  • There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Sevilla’s last 5 games (La Liga).

HEAD TO HEAD

  • Valencia have won 5 of their last 6 home games against Sevilla despite generally being the weaker of the two teams in recent years. Both teams scored in 4 of those wins.

TEAM NEWS

Valencia

  • There are no fresh problems for Valencia. Simone Zaza has been carrying a knock but it hasn’t stopped him from playing and few changes are likely here although Martin Montoya could come in at full-back.

Sevilla

  • Steven N’Zonzi has picked up an ankle injury which is a big blow as he is their best holding midfielder. Guido Pizarro could be drafted in to replace him if he doesn’t pull through. Joaquin Correa should be preferred to Nolito on the left once again.

VALENCIA WIN TO SCORE AT 2.10 ODDS (SPORTPESA)
