SEV vs ATL La Liga 2021-22 Preview:
Sevilla host struggling giants Atletico Madrid at Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan in the La Liga fixture on Saturday night clash. This will be the biggest fixture of this game week in Spanish football. Sevilla are looking to close the gap to leaders Real Madrid, and champions are looking to cement their fourth position in the league table.
Sevilla and Real Madrid are going toe-to-toe for the title race this season and this match will be crucial for them to remain the same. They are eight points behind the Los Blancos but have one extra game in hand to change that. Manager Julen Lopetegui’s side enters this fixture after their narrow Copa del Rey victory over Andratx. They needed penalties to overcome their opponents which was not a good sign for them. Their last La Liga match was against Athletic Club, which ended as 0-1a away victory for Sevilla.
Sevilla needs to show their best quality against Atletico Madrid because they next host Barcelona. Both fixtures will be deciding factors for the title race this season. But this is not a good time for the big matches for manager Lopetegui, his side is struggling lately for consistency. They were knocked out of the Champions League campaign this month and haven’t scored more than 1 goal in the last six fixtures.
La Liga champions are surely out of the title race this season, not mathematically though. They sit at 4th position in the league table with just 29 points from 16 league matches, 13 behind city rivals Real Madrid and 5 behind today’s opponents. Manager Diego Simeone will be shifting his focus to the top-four race this season and know the importance of the fixture against Sevilla.
Atletico Madrid enters this fixture after back-to-back La Liga defeats, the latest one against Real Madrid by 2-0 away. They did manage to secure Champions League next-round qualification this month after beating FC Porto in their last fixture.
