The 2022-23 edition of La Liga is back in action with another round of matches this week as Real Valladolid lock horns with Julen Lopetegui's Sevilla outfit at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Friday.
Sevilla vs Real Valladolid Preview
Real Valladolid are currently in 18th place in the La Liga standings and have made a poor start to their top-flight campaign. The away side suffered a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Villarreal last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Sevilla, on the other hand, are in 15th place in the league table at the moment and have also failed to meet expectations so far. The Andalusians slumped to a shock 2-1 defeat at the hands of Osasuna in their previous game and have a point to prove this week.
Sevilla vs Real Valladolid Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- Sevilla have a good record against Real Valladolid and have won eight out of the 24 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Real Valladolid's six victories.

Sevilla vs Real Valladolid Prediction
Sevilla have been in poor form over the past month and have failed to make the most of their pre-season tour. The Andalusians were outplayed by Osasuna last week and cannot afford to slip up in this match.
Real Valladolid were given a reality check by Villarreal in their previous game and have a mountain to climb on Friday. Sevilla are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.
