Olot vs Sevilla Prediction and Betting Tips | December 5th 2024

Olot will host Sevilla at the Municipal d’Olot on Thursday in the second round of the 2024-25 Copa del Rey campaign. The hosts are increasingly unlikely to end their poor run of form that has seen them fail to win any of their last seven games.

Segunda Federacion side Olot narrowly went through the opening round by defeating La Liga 2 side Cordoba 4-3 in the penalty shootout after a 1-1 full-time draw. The home side have since lost four and drawn two of six competitive matches and are currently languishing in the relegation zone of the Spanish fourth tier.

Sevilla have struggled to find consistent form, with only five wins in 15 league games this season. The visitors will, however, be confident going into this domestic cup tie after cruising to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Spanish Amateur side Las Rozas CF in the opening round.

The five-time Copa del Rey winners have gotten knocked out in the quarter-finals in the last two seasons and will be looking to go at least that far in this campaign.

Olot vs Sevilla Prediction

Despite both teams having an underwhelming season, the odds are stacked against Olot as they face one of the most successful Spanish teams. Their abysmal defensive record might prove costly against the quality of the visitors’ attackers.

Sevilla will look to get a confidence booster by putting up a dominant performance on Thursday. They undoubtedly have the quality to completely overpower their hosts and will only need to be wary of any complacency to get the job done.

Prediction: Olot 0-2 Sevilla
