Sevilla vs Atletico Madrid prediction 11.02.2024

• Competition: La Liga
• Date: Sunday, 11 February 2024
• Kickoff: 17:30 UTC / 18:30 CET
• Venue: Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán (Sevilla)

Sevilla have the worst season in the 21st century. They are only three points above the drop zone, so Quique Sanchez Flores' team has to play much better to avoid a relegation dogfight. Sevilla were on three games run without a win until the previous match, when they won 2-1 on the road against Rayo Vallecano. Sevilla picked up all three points, but according to the stats, the home side was much better. Rayo Vallecano had 67% ball possession and 22 shots on the goal, but Sevilla was much better at converting goal-scoring chances. 

Atletico Madrid are far from winning the La Liga title, but they should remain in the top-four team and secure another Champions League appearance. Lately, Atletico Madrid has been good, with six games without a loss, but on Wednesday, Diego Simeone's side lost 1-0 at home in Copa del Rey against Athletic Bilbao. The home side played well in that one but couldn't find the net. Luckily for Atletico Madrid, they will still have a chance to progress to the cup final if they win in the second leg. For Atletico Madrid, it will be very important to win versus Sevilla on Sunday to improve its confidence. 

Sevilla vs Atletico Madrid pick: Under 2.5 goals

Sevilla scored only three goals in the last three matches. On the other hand, Atletico Madrid scored seven goals in the last six games and went under 2.5 goals in five of those six matches. Under 2.5 goals should be the best betting option for this tie.
