Preview

Match preview

Real Madrid welcome Sevilla to the Santiago Bernabeu sitting fourth in La Liga with 18 points from their opening eight fixtures. The hosts have established commanding form at home, winning all four of their league matches on domestic soil with 13 goals scored and just two conceded. They enter this clash having won three straight matches in all competitions, though they must adjust to the suspension of Vinicius Junior alongside defensive and attacking injuries.

Sevilla sit directly behind them in fifth position on 14 points, having produced four wins, two draws, and two defeats. Their away form has been particularly resilient, as they remain unbeaten across four league matches on the road with two wins and two draws. Sevilla have scored eight goals away from home while conceding five, showing consistent offensive output despite dealing with absences such as I. Romero to suspension.

Head-to-head history heavily leans toward the capital club, with Real Madrid victorious in nine of the last ten meetings across all venues, alongside one draw. While Real Madrid have won all five recent home meetings against Sevilla, the visitors' ability to score on their travels and Madrid's selection absences make this a closely contested fixture.

Double Chance
Real Madrid or Draw
78%
Confidence

Real Madrid have won all four home matches in La Liga this season, averaging 3.3 goals scored per game and only 0.5 conceded. Their historical head-to-head advantage is substantial, taking nine victories and one draw from their last ten meetings with Sevilla, including five straight home wins. However, Sevilla are undefeated on the road in four league outings with two wins and two draws, averaging two goals scored per away game. With Real Madrid missing Vinicius Junior through suspension alongside injuries to Eder Militao and Rodrygo, backing the home side on the double chance covers the possibility of a competitive draw while keeping the hosts favoured. Real Madrid's scoring average at home combined with Sevilla finding the net in all four away games supports over 2.5 goals.
