Sevilla v Valladolid

Sevilla vs Real Valladolid Preview

Sevilla slipped to another loss in the Spanish top flight on Friday night when the hosts were dealt a 2-1 defeat away from home at Alaves which has placed the home side in the lower half of the division, while Real Valladolid's winless run in the domestic top flight extended to five games following a 0-0 draw at home with Real Sociedad, so it's fair to say that both teams will be keen to return to winning ways on Tuesday night.

Sevilla have managed to collect just the single win so far in this season's La Liga campaign which came in the form of a 1-0 home win against Getafe but having also been handed three defeats within their opening six games, Garcia Pimienta's side find themselves once again occupying a place in the bottom half of the table.

Losses to the likes of Villarreal, Girona and Alaves suggest this upcoming clash at home with fellow strugglers Real Valladolid is likely to resemble something closer to a war of attrition than a free-flowing entertaining game, while the bigger picture shows Sevilla have registered just one win in their last 10 matches overall.

Seven defeats within these last 10 games underlines Sevilla's problems of late.

Real Valladolid produced a winning start to their new Spanish top flight campaign when they recorded a 1-0 home win against Espanyol on the opening day of the season but the visitors have really struggled in their subsequent league matches.

Following that opening win, Real Valladolid have failed to win any of their subsequent five games and having lost three of these five games, the visitors also look set to have their work cut out if they're to get a result of some sort at the Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán on Tuesday night.

Defeats dealt by the likes of Real Madrid 3-0, Barcelona 7-0 and Celta Vigo 3-1 also show Real Valladolid's soft underbelly as the visitors have shipped a total of 13 goals in their last five games overall along with failing to score in four of these games as well.

The bigger picture shows Real Valladolid have managed to capture just two wins in their previous 14 matches overall in La Liga, both of which came on home soil with victories over Barcelona and Espanyol but having also slipped to eight defeats within this period as well, Paulo Pezzolano's side look a fairly shaky outfit.

This is further underlined by the fact that Real Valladolid have now lost six of their last seven outings on the road as well.
