The 2023-24 edition of La Liga is back in action with another set of matches this week as Granada lock horns with a struggling Sevilla side in an important clash at the Estadio los Carmenes on Tuesday.
Granada vs Sevilla Preview
Granada are currently in 19th place in the La Liga standings and have struggled to cope with the rigours of the top flight this season. The home side suffered a damaging 1-0 defeat at the hands of Celta Vigo over the weekend and will need to bounce back in this match.
Sevilla, on the other hand, are in 17th place in the league table at the moment and have not been at their best this season. The Andalusian giants slumped to a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Getafe in their previous game and have a point to prove this week.
Granada vs Sevilla Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- Sevilla have a good recent record against Granada and have won 13 out of the last 22 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Granada's seven victories.
- After an unbeaten run of four matches against Sevilla in La Liga, Granada have lost five of their last seven such games in the competition.

Granada vs Sevilla Prediction
Sevilla have flattered to deceive so far this season and are dangerously close to the relegation zone at the moment. The likes of Ivan Rakitic and Sergio Ramos are seasoned campaigners and will need to bring their experience to the fore this week.
Granada have also been poor performers this season and will be up against a formidable test in this fixture. Sevilla are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.
Prediction: Granada 0-2 Sevilla
