🌟 Isaac and En-Nesyri partnership— Sevilla FC (@SevillaFC_ENG) February 9, 2024
Sevilla secured all three points against Rayo Vallecano last time out thanks to Youssef En-Nesyri’s brace in the Spanish capital. It was the Red and Whites’ first league win since the middle of December and just their fourth top flight success this season. Meanwhile, Los Nervionenses are winless in their last ten home-games in all competitions, losing five matches in the process. Quique Sanchez Flores’ men have some tough fixtures coming up, facing Atletico, Valencia, Real Madrid and Real Sociedad in their next four.
Atleti, meanwhile, saw their five game winning run across all competitions come to an end away to Real Madrid (1-1) on February 4. Diego Simeone’s side fought back from a goal down to earn a point at Santiago Bernabeu thanks to Marcos Llorente’s equaliser three minutes into the injury time. But three days later, Los Colchoneros were beaten at home by Athletic Club in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final fixture, courtesy of Alejandro Berenguer Remiro’s lone goal from the penalty spot in the 25th minute. Simeone’s men have another two league games before heading to Inter Milan for the first leg of their Champions League last-16 encounter on February 20.
Sevilla probable starting lineup: Nyland, Navas, Bade, Ramos, Acuna, Suso, Sow, Soumare, Ocampos, En-Nesyri, Romero
Atletico Madrid probable starting lineup: Oblak, Savic, Witsel, Hermoso, Molina, De Paul, Koke, Llorente, Lino, Griezmann, Morata
