Sevilla are back in action with another important La Liga fixture this week as they take on Valencia on Wednesday. Both teams have impressive players in their ranks and will want to win this game.
Valencia are in 10th place in the La Liga standings and have failed to meet expectations this season. Los Che suffered a 4-1 defeat against Real Madrid last week and will need to bounce back in this match.
Sevilla, on the other hand, are in second place in the league table at the moment and have been impressive so far. The Andalusians crashed out of the Copa del Rey over the weekend and have a point to prove in this fixture.
