Sevilla could still finish in points with leaders Atletico, but Diego SimeoneThe team have a better head-to-head record which means Los Nervionenses are unable to win the title even though they collect six more points and Atletico, Real Madrid and Barcelona all lose their next two. .

However, Lopetegui’s side are just two points behind third-placed Barca and there is no doubt that it would turn out like a successful campaign if they managed to make it into the top three.

The 1945-46 Spanish champions, who beat Valencia 1-0 on Wednesday night, will be determined to end their season with wins over Villarreal and Alaves, which could still be enough to climb into the top three.

SM words green background

We say: Villarreal 1-1 Sevilla

Villarreal are certainly a team to respect at this level of football, and we love the Yellow Submarine to claim a share of the loot here. Sevilla’s momentum was broken recently and the corresponding game between the two teams last season ended in a draw, which leads us to predict a stalemate here.
