What has been Real Madrid and Sevilla's form ahead of this match?
Real Madrid enters this game having won four out of their last six in La Liga. Unfortunately for them, their only loss during that period came at the Bernabeu two weeks ago, when Real Sociedad took home all the points with a 2-0 score. Last week, a free kick by Dani Ceballos gave Solari's men a last-gasp win against Sevilla's bitter rival, Betis.
Sevilla enters this game with their sights set on winning their first La Liga match in 2019. Although Machin's men won in the Copa del Rey, their one-all draw against Atlético and their loss against Athletic were a huge blow to their chances of getting closer to Barcelona in the Spanish top flight. In fact, Sevilla has only been able to win one of their last six La Liga games: a 2-0 victory against Girona that took place over a month ago.
What is the current position of Real Madrid and Sevilla in La Liga?
Real Madrid enters this game as the fourth-best team in La Liga. Los Blancos have won ten of their previous games, with three draws and six losses to their name. Los Blancos have not been as dominant as in recent seasons, with their 28-goal tally being a good example of that statement.
Sevilla gets to the Bernabeu in third place of the Spanish top flight. Los Hispalenses have won nine games, with six draws and four losses completing their record. Pablo Machin's side owns the second best offensive unit in Spain with 31 goals, far behind Barcelona's 53-goal haul.
