The 2023-24 edition of La Liga is back in action with another set of matches this week as Almeria lock horns with Sevilla in a crucial encounter at the Estadio Mediterraneo on Monday.
Almeria vs Sevilla Preview
Almeria are rooted to the bottom of the La Liga standings at the moment and have been shockingly poor so far this season. The home side suffered a damaging 1-0 defeat at the hands of Celta Vigo last week and will need to work hard to bounce back in this match.
Sevilla, on the other hand, are in 14th place in the league table at the moment and have failed to meet expectations over the past year. The Andalusian giants edged Real Sociedad to an important 3-2 victory in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this week.
