Sevilla FC vs Atletico Madrid Preview

 

Sevilla FC vs Atletico Madrid

Competition – Copa del Rey

Stadium – Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan

Date: 23rd January 2018

Kick-off time – 20:30 GMT

Sevilla host Atletico in game two as they look to continue the good work they started in the first leg.

They secured a shock 2-1 win at Atletico heading into this game and followed that up with a huge 0-3 win at Espanyol at the weekend.

They have 3 wins from their last 4 competitive games and  two wins from as many away games leading up to this match.

At home, they have not been so impressive with just 1 win from their last 3 and that came in the Copa del Rey win over Cadiz last November.

Atletico Madrid will be looking to get back to winning ways here.

Their 1-1 draw at home to Girona means they have no wins from their last two home games, one of which was the first leg of this game.

Diego Costa has added goals to their game but their defence has loosened up a bit and they need to be tight if they want to overturn the first leg deficit here.

Away from home, they have 3 wins from 4 games and that should spur them on as they visit Seville here.
