The La Liga match between Sevilla and Valencia will take place at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Saturday at 1:30 am IST.
The 2023-24 La Liga season kicks off with an nail-biting match as Sevilla hosts Valencia at Estadio Ramon. This encounter promises to be captivating, given the history of both teams. In the previous La Liga season, both Sevilla and Valencia fell short of expectations. Sevilla concluded the season in the 12th spot, while Valencia’s performance was even more lackluster, finishing 16th and narrowly avoiding relegation.
Sevilla must have been relieved to leave the challenging 2022-23 La Liga season in the past. Despite having a talented squad, they significantly underperformed, finishing disappointingly in the 12th position with 49 points. However, the team managed to salvage their season by clinching the Europa League title. This victory secured their direct qualification for the group stage of the 2023-24 Champions League, granting them another chance to compete in Europe’s premier club competition. During the summer transfer window, Europa League titleholders secured three new signings: Loic Bade, Djibril Sow, and Adria Pedrosa. Meanwhile, Karim Rekik and Rony Lopes have departed the club on permanent transfers.
Valencia’s 16th-place finish in the previous La Liga season marked their lowest position in Spain’s top division since their relegation at the conclusion of the 1984-85 campaign. The team with six Spanish championships could only collect 42 points across 28 matches in the 2022-23 season, leaving them a mere two points clear of the relegation zone as the season concluded. Valencia is well aware of the significance of starting the season on a strong note. Yet, supporters are hopeful for additional signings before the transfer window closes, as the team currently appears to lack scoring firepower in the attacking third of the pitch.
