On Saturday evening, Sevilla will look to get back to winning ways in La Liga when they host Rayo Vallecano at the Sanchez Pizjuan.
The Andalusians have struggled for results this season and currently sit in 16th place in La Liga, just a point above the relegation zone.
The fact that Sevilla has won just one of their previous six games in the Spanish top flight has been a significant factor in their current lowly position in the league table.
Jorge Sampaoli’s team did get a slight boost in midweek when they recorded a 3-0 home win over Copenhagen in the Champions League.
Back in La Liga, and unusually for Sevilla, they have been poor on home soil, as they have won just one of their previous nine La Liga games at the Sanchez Pizjuan.
The Andalusians' most recent home games have been tight, low-scoring encounters, with under 2.5 goals scored in six of their previous eight home matches in the Spanish top-flight.
The visitors are experiencing a slightly inconsistent league campaign so far, having picked up 15 points from their previous 11 games in the Spanish top flight.

A 5-1 win over Cadiz last time out in the Spanish top-flight means that Rayo are unbeaten in three league games, although they have won just two of their previous seven matches in La Liga.
The visitor's recent games in La Liga have been relatively high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in six of their previous eight league matches.
Rayo Vallecano have been poor travellers of late in the Spanish top-flight, winning just one of their last eight away games in La Liga.
Forebet predicts that Sevilla will suffer more frustration with this game producing a low-scoring draw.
