Sevilla Team News
In the previous round of LaLiga, Sevilla players were unexpectedly defeated by Girona at home by 0:2. Although, by all statistical parameters, they were the better rival in this duel, the result at the end of the game was not on their side. They conceded goals in the 23rd and 55th minutes of the match, after which they failed to equalize.
They currently occupy the 11th position in the table with 41 points won, eight less than the sixth-placed Real Betis and the place that leads to the European competition. In the quarter-finals of the Europa League, they eliminated Manchester United, with a total score of 5:2. Their next opponent will be Juventus. In the cup, they lost to Osasuna in the quarter-finals by 2:1. In the last five matches in all competitions, they registered four wins and one loss.
Coach Jose Luis Mendilibar will not be able to count on Marcao and Joan Jordan due to injuries for the upcoming match, while Tanguy Nianzou, who has health problems, is a question mark. All other players are ready to welcome the next duel.
After starting the last match from the bench, Jesus Navas, Ivan Rakitic, and Suso will probably be in the starting line-up. There should be no other changes.
Espanyol Team News
In the last league game, Espanyol beat Getafe at home 1:0. The only goal of the match was scored by Joselu from the penalty spot in the 38th minute, and the score remained unchanged until the end of the match.
They currently occupy the 18th position in the table with 31 points, two less than Valencia, who are out of the relegation zone. In the last nine league games, they recorded one win and one draw, and even seven losses. In the cup, they were eliminated in the round of 16 by Athletic Bilbao with 1:0.
Jose Gragera missed the previous two matches and is questionable for the next match. Martin Braithwaite has accumulated five yellow cards and will be suspended in the match against Sevilla. All other players will be at the disposal of coach Luis Garcia.
The attack will be led by Joselu, who is the third-highest scorer in LaLiga, and Martin Braithwaite is likely to be replaced by Javi Puado. But we have to see.
