Sevilla vs Atletico Madrid Prediction: Bet on Sevilla's first home win of the season

One of the central matches in the seventh round of the Spanish football championship will be the encounter in which Sevilla faces Atletico. Despite the field factor, the bookmakers are on the side of the Madrid club. Sevilla started the season poorly, but before the break, the Red and Whites hadn't lost three games in a row, so we can say that the future hosts have found stability.

A disappointing start to the season, an away draw in Copenhagen, an away win over Espanyol, and a 1:1 draw against Villarreal. In the last three games: two draws and a win. Thanks to 4 points from the previous two rounds of La Liga, Sevilla is out of the relegation zone, sitting 15th with five points. Such a result doesn't suit the UEFA Champions League participant.

After several successful matches in the Spanish championship and the Champions League, Atletico Madrid lost two games in a row: 0:2 to Bayer Leverkusen and 1:2 at home to Real Madrid. As a result, after the derby defeat, the Spurs dropped out of the European competition and are now seventh in the Premiership standings. Atletico's away statistics are fourth in the division, +2=1-0, 5:1 goal difference, and seven points from three games.

Despite the tournament position of their future opponents, we cannot say that Atletico is in better shape than Sevilla. The Spurs have two defeats in their last two games, while Sevilla has two draws and a win in their previous three away matches. Sevilla has suffered two consecutive home defeats to Barcelona and Manchester City. It is also worth noticing that Atletico Sevilla hasn't won in the last four seasons. We believe Sevilla is underestimated, so we expect their first home win of the season and a low-scoring game.
