Sevilla vs Villarreal Predictions

• Sevilla have won two and drawn one of their last three games
• Villarreal are yet to win any away match this season
• The Yellow Submarine have only tasted victory on one of their last five trips to Sevilla

Improving Sevilla can extend unbeaten run

Three weeks ago a clash between Sevilla and Villarreal would have been a foregone conclusion, but the pair’s form has flipped over the past few games. 

Villarreal opened the season with a 2-0 victory over Real Oviedo and a 5-0 rout of Girona but have since won just one of their last four in all competitions and are no sure things at Sevilla. 

The Andalusians endured a miserable start, losing their first two matches, but have gone on to draw with Elche and beat Girona and Alaves in their last three games, suggesting they can give the Yellow Submarine a real test on Tuesday. 

Villarreal may have to settle for a point in Andalusia 

The visitors will look to the head-to-head record for a morale boost, given they have won the last three meetings, but their recent away record, both in clashes with Sevilla and this season, makes it hard to trust Marcelino’s men. 

They have a stronger squad than their hosts but Villarreal have won just one of their last five away games against the Andalusians and none of their road matches this term, making the draw the most appealing bet.
