Real Madrid vs Sevilla Predictions

• Real Madrid have won all five of their home matches this season with both teams scoring in three
• Sevilla have scored in all eight of their La Liga games this term
• Five of Real Madrid’s last six games have seen both teams score

Los Blancos seem to be back on song

Real Madrid welcome Sevilla to the Bernabeu on Sunday night looking to build on last week’s La Liga win at home to Villarreal. Los Blancos sit fourth with 18 points from their opening eight matches and arrive on the back of 4-3 Champions League road win over Roma.

Jose Mourinho’s side have been flawless at the Bernabeu this season, beating Real Sociedad 4-1, Málaga 4-0, Rayo Vallecano 4-1 and Villarreal 1-0 in La Liga while enjoying a 2-1 victory over the manager’s former club Inter Milan in Europe.

Those victories have produced 15 goals while they have conceded just three times, so it is no surprise to see them installed as strong favourites to beat Sevilla.

Sevilla have scored in all eight

However, the Andalusians look capable of making life difficult for Mourinho’s men. Garcia Plaza’s side have found the net in all eight of their league matches this season and showed their attacking threat again in a thrilling 3-3 draw at Levante last week.

Even in defeats to Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, Sevilla managed to score, so they should fancy their chances against a side that shipped three in midweek.

An open contest looks likely given six of Real Madrid’s eight league games have produced over 2.5 goals, while Sevilla have seen five of eight cross that line. Both teams to score appeals at generous odds, but Madrid’s formidable home record should ultimately prove decisive. A 4-1 home win is the correct score prediction.
