Crystal Palace v Sevilla - Pre-Season Friendly
Valencia take on Sevilla this week

The 2023-24 edition of La Liga kicks off with its first round of matches this week as Valencia lock horns with an impressive Sevilla side in a crucial encounter at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Friday.


Sevilla vs Valencia Preview

Valencia finished in 16th place in the La Liga standings last season and have not been at their best in recent years. Los Che suffered a narrow 2-1 defeat at the hands of Aston Villa in their previous game and will need to work hard to bounce back this week.

Sevilla, on the other hand, secured a 12th-place finish in the league table last season and managed to improve after a poor start to their campaign. The Andalusian outfit played out a 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid and will need to take it up a notch to win this match.

Sevilla vs Valencia Prediction

Sevilla have made impressive strides since the turn of the year and have managed to move past their rough patch. The likes of Lucas Ocampos and Rafa Mir can be effective on their day and will look to make their mark this week.

Valencia have struggled to cope with their own transition and have a point to prove this season. Sevilla are the better team at the moment, however, and should be able to win this game.
