Sevilla will host Almeria at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Tuesday in another round of the 2023-24 La Liga campaign.
The home side have had yet another disappointing start to their season and currently find themselves just outside the drop zone. They played out a goalless draw against health in their game on Saturday and could have no real complaints about the result after managing just one shot on target in the opposition box throughout the match.
Sevilla sit 16th in the league table with just four points from five games and will be looking to add to that tally this week.
Almeria have endured an even more difficult campaign than their midweek opponents as they continue to search for their first win of the season. They played out a 2-2 draw against Valencia in their last game, falling behind twice and coming back to draw level on both occasions via goals from Sergio Arribas.
The visitors sit rock-bottom in the La Liga standings with just two points from an obtainable 18. They will aim to shake off their latest results and get their campaign on track on Tuesday.

Sevilla vs Almeria Prediction
Sevilla are on a run of back-to-back draws and have won just one of their last nine league games. They are, however, unbeaten in their last two home games and will be looking to extend that streak this week.
Almeria are on a nine-game winless streak in La Liga with five of those games ending in defeat. The sheer gulf in class and quality between the two sides should see the home side win here.
