PENULTIMATE HOME GAME AGAINST A VIRTUALLY SAFE VALENCIA CF

Sevilla FC come into the last ten days of the season. They do so with their penultimate match at home against a Valencia CF who, even though it is not mathematically confirmed, will continue next season in LaLiga Santander. It will be the second time that the two teams come head to head at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán after Sevilla came out on top in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals with a 3-0 win.

As Julen Lopetegui said yesterday, Sevilla's only aim is to keep gaining points and to wait and see what happens with the other three teams. They will try to break the team's record points tally in the league - they would need two wins to do so - and attempt to move up from fourth. After FC Barcelona's draw against the other team from Valencia, a win would put Sevilla within two points. Ahead of the squad being released, it seems the coach will have all of his players available to him - almost a miracle after such a demanding fixture list which has brought many teams to the limit.

Voro is only missing Cristian Rivero through injury

It seems Valencia have undergone a change after some intense days that lead to the sacking of Javi Gracia. The composed Voro has returned to take the reigns and with the convincing win at home against Real Valladolid last weekend, it appears a certain calmness has come as well. Valencia can secure mathematical safety with a point, or they can even do so with a loss and if Huesca do not pick up three points against Athletic Club. A third scenario comes into play tomorrow, were Valladolid not to beat Villarreal. Valencia come into the game with only one injury - Cristian Rivero. Cutrone and Jason have not travelled on the coach's decision.

The Catalan Xavier Estrada Fernández will be in charge of the match. In the 29 Sevilla games he has refereed, the team have 14 wins, seven draws and eight defeats. The team has seen all three results with him this season, after he refereed a win against Levante, a draw against Real Valladolid with Bono's unforgettable goal, and a loss against Atlético Madrid. Iglesias Villanueva will be on VAR duties.
