General match analysis
Sevilla sit 6th, while Espanyol are 11th. The visitors have won 3 of their last 5 matches and have averaged 1.6 goals per game during that run. Espanyol have collected just 0.8 points per game across their last five outings, suffering 3 defeats and conceding as many as 10 goals, which points to a clear defensive problem. Sevilla have won 100% of their away matches so far, averaging 3 goals per game and recording neither a draw nor a defeat, although their low xG of 0.84 suggests they have been highly efficient relative to the quality of the chances created. The hosts take more shots, 12 compared with 7 per game, and also post a higher xG, 1.34 versus 0.84, but their defence allows opponents an xG of 1.43, while Sevilla convert as many as 43% of their attempts. Espanyol should create chances and may find the net, but their current run and Sevilla’s outstanding away efficiency slightly favour an away win.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Both teams currently have a 100% BTTS rate, well above the league average of 53%, and neither has kept a clean sheet. Over their last five matches, the BTTS rate stands at 80% for both sides, with Espanyol averaging 1.8 goals scored and 2.0 conceded, while Sevilla averages 1.6 scored and 1.4 conceded. Espanyol generate chances worth 1.74 xG at home and register 16.5 shots per match, while Sevilla allow opponents as much as 2.30 xG, strongly supporting the home side to score. Sevilla have a lower current xG of just 0.84, but they are effectively scoring an average of 3.0 goals away from home, while Espanyol’s defence has conceded in every match and recorded 1.58 xG against them across their last five appearances. The most likely scenario is therefore a goal for both teams, although Sevilla’s lower chance creation limits confidence in the selection.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The strongest signal points to Over 1.5 goals: both teams have surpassed this line in 100% of their matches so far this season. In their last five games, Espanyol averaged 1.8 goals scored and 2.0 conceded, while Sevilla averaged 1.6 scored and 1.4 conceded per match. The quality-of-chances profile also points to an open game, as Espanyol allowed opponents an average of 1.58 xG, compared with 1.25 xG allowed by Sevilla. Both teams recorded both teams to score in 80% of their last five matches, while Over 2.5 goals landed in 100% and 80% of those games respectively, further strengthening the prediction of at least two goals.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
The strongest signal points to Sevilla leading at the break and maintaining their advantage through to the final whistle, as the visitors have won all of their away matches so far, while Espanyol have lost 50% of their home fixtures. In the data for the current matchup, the hosts were trailing at half-time in 100% of matches, conceding an average of 2.0 goals before the break and scoring none, whereas Sevilla were ahead at half-time in 100% of cases and had not conceded during that period. Over their last five matches, Sevilla won 60% of fixtures and scored an average of 1.6 goals, compared with Espanyol’s 0.8 points per game and an average of 2.0 goals conceded. After the break, the visitors scored an average of 1.0 goals in their last five appearances, while Espanyol conceded as many as 1.2 goals in this period, further supporting the scenario of an away win. Espanyol’s creative edge, reflected in an xG of 1.74 compared with Sevilla’s 0.84 and 16.5 shots versus 7.0, reduces confidence in the pick, but Sevilla’s conversion rate of 43% clearly exceeds the hosts’ 9%.
