Real Madrid were beaten 1-0 by Leganes in their last competitive game in the Copa del Rey, although they still made it to the next round, that loss ended their two games winning streak and they would be looking to bounce back in this game.<\/p>\n
Los Blancos did beat Real Betis away from home in their last league game, thanks to a late strike from Dani Cabellos, but Sevilla are a different opponent in terms of quality and it would a more demanding game for them in this fixture.<\/p>\n
Sevilla have also been very inconsistent this season.<\/p>\n
They topped the La Liga table at some point during the first half of the season but their 2019 haven’t gotten off to the right start so far.<\/p>\n
They started the year with a 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid before going on to play Athletic Bilbao 3 times and losing twice, only narrowly qualifying for the next round of the Copa del Rey.<\/p>\n
