Sevilla are set to play host to Valencia at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Wednesday for their latest La Liga game.
Sevilla come into this game on the back of a 2-2 draw against Zinedine Zidane's Real Madrid yesterday at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano. Goals from Brazilian midfielder Fernando and Croatia international Ivan Rakitic for Sevilla was cancelled out by goals from Spanish forward Marco Asensio and Belgium international Eden Hazard for Real Madrid.
Valencia, on the other hand, beat Sergio Gonzalez's Real Valladolid 3-0 yesterday at the Mestalla. A brace from Uruguayan striker Maxi Gomez and a goal from Portuguese right-back Thierry Correia ensured victory for Voro's Valencia.

Sevilla vs Valencia Prediction
Sevilla are currently 4th in La Liga, four points behind 2nd-placed Real Madrid with three games to go. Manager Julen Lopetegui has done a good job at the helm, and players like French centre-back Jules Kounde and Moroccan attacker Youssef En-Nesyri could leave the club for big money in the summer.
Valencia, on the other hand, are 13th in the league table, and have won only one of their last five league games. They recently sacked Javi Gracia, and have once again appointed Voro as their interim manager. It has been a disappointing season for the club, and they have a big summer ahead to rectify their past mistakes.
Sevilla are in good form and should emerge victorious here.
Prediction: Sevilla 2-0 Valencia
