Team News

Sevilla
Celta Vigo
  • Erik Lamela remains out, as do Jesus Navas and Suso.
  • Thomas Delaney is another absentee, while Karim Rekik is still a doubt.
  • Jules Koundé is working his way back towards match fitness and could feature.
  • Munir and Youssef El-Nesyri are away at the Africa Cup of Nations.
  • Augusto Solaro, Ruben Blanco and Renato Tapia have all come through knocks.
  • There are no further doubts for Celta Vigo, and their starting XI should be pretty predictable given Eduardo Caudet has made few rotations so far this season.

Prediction

  • Sevilla suffered a big setback in the title race last time out, drawing 1-1 with Valencia having led, missing the chance to go within two points of leaders Real Madrid.
  • Prior to that, Sevilla lost to Real Betis in the Copa del Rey following the resumption of the game a day after it had started. The original tie had to be postponed during the first half due to Joan Jordan being hit on the head by a plastic pole thrown from the crowd.
  • Jordan was cleared fit to play earlier this week following a concussion, but he didn't play when the game did resume, and Sevilla bowed out of the Cup.
  • Celta Vigo were also in action during the week, taking on Osasuna and coming out on top with a 2-0 win thanks to goals from Hugo Mallo and Santi Mina.
  • Before the Osasuna clash, Celta lost back-to-back games, losing to Real Sociedad in La Liga and Atletico Baleares in the Copa del Rey.
  • Caudet's men could do with a consistent run of results to climb the table, but they are likely to come off second best here.
