Sevilla preview: In a fight
Following the appointment of former Deportivo Alaves boss Luis Garcia Plaza, Sevilla returned from the March international break with a slender 1-0 defeat to rock-bottom and relegation-bound Real Oviedo in Asturias last weekend.
The Andalusians have now endured three successive defeats ahead of this weekend, sitting just two points and one place outside of the bottom three and the relegation places in La Liga.
Atletico Madrid preview: Focus on the UCL
Atletico Madrid will be fully focused on their upcoming UEFA Champions League quarter-final second-leg after Los Rojiblancos defeated Barcelona by two goals to nil at Camp Nou the other day with goals from Julian Alvarez and Alexander Sorloth.
Atleti have endured back-to-back defeats in La Liga either side of the March international break, with a hard-fought derby day defeat to Real Madrid before a 2-1 loss to the aforementioned Barcelona, too.

Sevilla vs Atletico Madrid prediction
With little to play for in the league, Atleti will not be prioritising this. They have a Copa del Rey final later this month and that crucial visit of Barcelona this midweek as they sit 12 points tucked inside the top four, 13 inside the top five, which will likely be enough for UEFA Champions League qualification anyway. Given that, home advantage, Luis Garcia Plaza’s first home game, as well as their desperation for three points, Sevilla should come out on top here.
