Sevilla vs Atletico Madrid Preview – prediction, team news, lineups | LaLiga 2026-27

Neither of the last five games between these clubs ended in a draw!

Sevilla FC will be locking horns with Atletico Madrid in what is going to be the matchweek 3 fixture of the LaLiga 2026-27 season. This will be an entertaining outing to watch, taking place at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium.

Los Nervionenses initiated their new Spanish top division campaign with a 2-1 victory over Rayo Vallecano. At one point it might have ended on level terms, but with a spot kick in the final moments of the fixture, Luis García Plaza’s men came out on top to secure three points.

Sevilla FC then went on to secure a 3-1 win against Athletic Club. Despite having the ball very few times, they capitalised on the chances very well and secured three points once again. Plaza’s men will be eager for a third straight win now.

Los Colchoneros are coming in after being held to a 2-2 draw by Villarreal CF in their last LaLiga 2026-27 contest. Despite having a one-goal cushion, the Diego Simeone-led side came up with defensive errors and due to this, their opponents were awarded two penalties.

Atletico Madrid will be away from home, but have capable players to come up with a top performance.

Players to Watch

Oso (Sevilla)

The 23-year-old displayed a strong performance and helped Sevilla secure three important points against Athletic Club Bilbao. He broke the deadlock early and then went on to bag an important assist. Oso will be looking to step up his game once again and can cause problems for Atleti’s defence.

Giuliano Simeone (Atletico Madrid)

Giuliano Simeone was the star of the show after Atletico Madrid secured a 2-2 draw against Villarreal. He came out on top to score the crucial equaliser in the final moments of the game. The 23-year-old will once again be deployed on the right flank and, with his explosive pace, can threaten the opponent’s defence.
