On Sunday night, Sevilla and Villarreal go head-to-head at the Sanchez Pizjuan in La Liga as both teams look for potentially vital points.
The Andalusians are in poor form going into this clash, as a 3-2 midweek home defeat in the Champions League means that they are winless in their previous five games in all competitions while having won just once in their last 12 games.
When it comes to La Liga, it has been a case of too many draws of late, as they have drawn five of their previous seven matches, failing to record any victories.
The poor run has Sevilla in the perilous position of 15th place in the table, just four points clear of the relegation zone.
However, Los Nervionenses are unbeaten in their previous five home games in La Liga, although their last three league home soil matches have ended all square.
The Yellow Submarine’s improvement in form continued last time out, as Villarreal recorded a 3-2 home win over Panathinaikos.
The victory was their third in five matches in all competitions while suffering just one defeat in the run.
Marcelino’s team has certainly found their shooting boots of late, as they have scored at least two goals in six of their previous eight matches.

Villarreal’s recent record in La Liga is poor, as they have won just two of their last nine matches.
The visitors have been relatively prolific in front of goal of late, scoring at least two goals in three of their previous four games in the Spanish top flight.
Their recent away record is poor, as they have won just one of their previous five away games in La Liga.
Forebet predicts this will be a highly entertaining encounter, likely ending in a draw.
