Levante vs Sevilla FC Preview

This game is one of the most interesting Friday games of the season as these two sides are still fighting for something while some teams already know their fate.

Sevilla are looking for Europa League football next season, while Levante are still very close to dropping divisions and need a win to keep their survival hopes alive.

Sevilla have had perhaps the most inconsistent season in recent memories.

On their day they have been unplayable and killed giants like Manchester United and Atletico Madrid in the cups, while also impressing at times in the La Liga, however, they are currently struggling to get Europa League football next season and they would consider this season a failure if they don’t achieve that.

They have failed to win a single match since their 2-1 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford, losing the Copa del Rey final 5-0 to Barcelona in their last competitive fixture.

Prior to the appointment of Paco Lopez as Levante’s boss, the team had won just three games all season, however, under his guidance they now have 5 wins from their last seven games.

If they win this game, they would reach the 40 points mark which is usually the points average struggling teams aim for to survive the drop so a win here should should guarantee their safety.

Levante have not won any of their last five matches against Sevilla, yet they have lost only one of their last five home games against them.
