Sevilla FC vs Real Sociedad Tips and Prediction
On Sunday night, Sevilla’s miserable start to the season appeared to be about to grow much worse as they were down to 10 men against their high-flying rivals Real Betis before going down 1-0 to an awful own goal after 43 minutes.
Despite the raging tempers of derby day, Jorge Sampaoli’s team received some much-needed solace when both Nabil Fekir and Borja Iglesias were sent from the home team, giving the visitors an improbable one-man edge for the majority of the second half.
Nemanja Gudelj’s second 30-yard blast of the year stunned a bouncing Benito Villamarin as Los Nervionenses capitalized to salvage a valuable point that moves the six-time Europa League champions clear of the relegation zone. Despite having lost just once at the Sanchez Pizjuan throughout the entire previous season, Sevilla’s last LaLiga triumph came in the middle of October when Gudelj once again struck the back of the net from a distance. Sevilla is yet to win in front of their own supporters.
In a matchup that would often be a top-six showdown versus Real Sociedad, they will be seeking to end their surprising slide with only three points from a possible 18 at home.
La Real, on the other hand, are going through a small downturn of their own following the collapse of their club-record streak of eight straight victories against Real Valladolid last month.
Imanol Alguacil’s team had gone three LaLiga games without a victory before being forced to play Valencia for a draw over the weekend when Aritz Elustondo was shown a straight red card in the 13th minute.
Alexander Sorloth’s header was cleared off the line in the first half, and then the Norwegian striker almost missed the bar with a close-range attempt after the interval for the Basque team, who played with 10 men.
Conclusion
Sevilla will be happy to avoid defeat at their city rivals last time out, but their home winless record is worrisome for a team that is typically so dominant in front of their own supporters.
We anticipate a tight game with goals at both ends, but one that will ultimately end level, with the hosts keen for that elusive first win and the visitors likewise looking to end a recent mini-slump.
