On Tuesday Sevilla ended their eight-game unbeaten run. They lost 0:2 to Leicester City and were knocked out of the UEFA Champions League. It should be noticed that Sevilla were awarded for two penalties in their matches with English side and they failed to score even once, seeing themselves off the Eurocups. Sampaoli's team occupies the third place in the LaLiga with 57 gained points and five points ahead of the matchup hosting side. Sevilla took 25 points in 14 matches on the road in the LaLiga with 26 goals for and 19 goals against. The team avoided defeats in their last three away games starting January, 29th.
Having lost 0:1 to Sevilla in the reverse fixture earlier this season, Atletico Madrid were defeated for the first time in head-to-head since the third of October 2010. That defeat ended the unbeaten run which consisted of 13 matches. Now Madrid team is overdog. First, they play at their own turf, second, they are in a good form and high spirits after joining quarterfinals in the UEFA Champions League. Sevilla are in the opposite situation. The team failed to win in three matches in a row, and this time plays on the road where it does not always manage to show solid play, on top of all the knock out from the Eurocups does not allow players to stay in good mood.
Prediction for the match: Atletico Madrid to win.
