In their last outing, Sevilla suffered a 2-3 defeat away to Celta Vigo, despite playing the entire second half with a numerical advantage. This marked the eighth consecutive league match without a win for Joaquin Caparros's side, with two draws and six losses during this period. As a result, the team has fallen to 16th place in the standings, holding only a four-point cushion above the relegation zone.
- The club has failed to win in 10 of their last 11 La Liga matches (4 draws and 6 losses).

Las Palmas
Diego Martinez's side enters this match on a three-game losing streak in La Liga. The club lost 0-1 away to Athletic Bilbao, followed by home defeats to Valencia (2-3) and Rayo Vallecano (0-1). The Canary Islands team is currently second from the bottom in the standings but remains in the hunt to avoid relegation to the Segunda Division, trailing the safety of 17th place by just three points. It's worth noting that the team has conceded 57 goals, ranking 19th in the league for defensive performance.

Sevilla vs. Las Palmas: Match Prediction
Sevilla faces two tough fixtures against Real Madrid and Villarreal after their encounter with Las Palmas, making this match crucial for securing three points to maintain their La Liga status. Sevilla will give their all to win this game, as they need to score, and so does their opponent, who is even more motivated due to being in the relegation zone.
I hesitate to back a straight win for the hosts, as Sevilla has not won at home in eight consecutive league matches. However, goals are expected from them, given their seven-match scoring streak in home La Liga games. On the downside, they have conceded in 12 of their last 14 home league matches. Las Palmas, meanwhile, has kept a clean sheet in only one away league match this season but has scored in 6 of their last 8 away La Liga games.
My prediction – Both teams to score – yes
