Prediction: UD Almeria - Sevilla, Copa del Rey

Details:

No matter how we twist and turn the whole thing, we can not help but notice that there are a couple of levels difference between Almeria and Sevilla.

There is no longer any doubt that this edition of Seville is for real, it is only to state that Lopetegui has done a fantastic job, last year the Spaniard put the pieces of the puzzle in place and this year he has just taken it one step further . After all, it is the case that Sevilla is now fighting with Barcelona and Real Madrid for a second place in La Liga, so it is only a point different Sevilla from the giants and then they are still in the Champions League and play the quarterfinals in the Copa del Rey on Tuesday .

An incredibly nice season so far, and everything indicates that it will only get better in the future. Because in addition to all the clear steps Sevilla has taken this year, where we are mainly still most impressed by the defensive, but where the offensive must not be forgotten now that En-Nesyri has started goal production, Papu Gomez is now also a Sevilla player. One of the world's best midfielders last year.

It is a hell of a reinforcement and therefore we also expect that Sevilla will challenge Real and Barcelona all the way in. Actually. In fact, Sevilla have only lost three games since the beginning of November, against Chelsea, at the time when promotion was already secured in the CL, against Real Madrid and against Atletico Madrid.

At the same time, they have won 17 (!) Matches since then, this out of 22 possible. An incredible result that is just a confirmation that Sevilla is in fact for real. Add to that the fact that they are chasing their sixth straight victory against Almeria.

The seriousness is there and Sevilla are only two matches away from a cup final in Spain, we think it is one proper carrot for a Sevilla flying forward. Self-confidence is at its peak and you are well aware that the chance is greater for a title this year, Barca - who are still in the competition - are not really themselves, and we will not get away with that.
