Sevilla vs Valencia Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds
Los Hispalenses will take on Los Ches on matchday 19 in LaLiga.
Valencia go up against Sevilla this coming Saturday at the Sanchez Pizjuan. Sevilla have been a bit bleak in their last three matches, although it opened with a 1-0 victory over Celta Vigo. Unable to follow that up, they went down 4-2 against Real Madrid. They have claimed four wins in their last six LaLiga games and will look to keep improving in their upcoming fixtures. Unlike last season they are looking much better this time around but they need to have some consistency in their performances.
Valencia got just a single win in their last three games, they started with a 2-2 draw against Depotivo Alaves. Afterwards, a 1-2 defeat against Los Blancos and in their last fixture they beat Eldense in Copa del Rey by 2-0. Despite being in the relegation zone Valencia did show a great fight in their last fixture but they will have to get positive results to come out of the relegation zone.
