Sevilla vs Independiente del Valle Prediction 19 July 2023

Sevilla take on the visitors Independiente del Valle in the final match of Friendly Club Challenge Cup. The match will be played on Wednesday, July 19^th at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán (Sevilla).

Sevilla are just getting into the new season as the winner of the Europa League and will face the winner of the South American Cup in the new Challenge Cup tournament. The Andalusians have just come out of their vacations and played a friendly match against Cordoba, which they won 2-0, putting pressure on their opponent towards the end of the game. In any case, despite playing at home, Sevilla has significant problems with their preparation for this match - they have just come out of vacation, and their fitness level is clearly not at its best. And we are already aware of the defensive issues this team has.

Independiente del Valle are the Ecuadorian winner of the Copa Sudamericana, currently participating in the Copa Libertadores, where they advanced from the group stage to the playoffs two weeks ago. The team also won the first part of the national championship and qualified for the League Pro final. Yes, they had a two-week break before facing Sevilla, but that is much better than a full vacation for the Spaniards. The team is attacking-minded and will certainly push forward in this match.

The goal of the Ecuadorians is worth considering as it poses a considerable threat. Sevilla has just come out of vacation and is unlikely to be fully prepared to cope with the opponent's high pace. Furthermore, Sevilla has had defensive issues since last season after the departure of Kounde and Diego Carlos to other teams. When we add the very aggressive playing style of Independiente, we can expect them to score at least one goal against the hosts. I would also be cautious about favoring the Spanish team, who have only recently started to regain their form.

Prediction for the match: Independiente del Valle to score.
