The 2022-23 edition of La Liga is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Sevilla lock horns with Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid side in an important clash at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday.
Real Madrid vs Sevilla Preview
Sevilla are currently in 13th place in the La Liga standings and have made a decidedly poor start to their season. The Andalusian outfit played out a 1-1 draw against Valencia this week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
Real Madrid, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table at the moment and have been in impressive form this year. Los Blancos eased past Elche by a 3-0 margin in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
