Despite the change of coach, Valencia still has troubles. The Bats failed three times in the last five games, with a draw and a win over Osasuna. That said, their results depend on the field factor. Valencia has seven points in the last three games at home and a long series of away defeats. Before the 29th round, Valencia is 18th with 27 points. The gap from Valladolid, occupying a safe 17th place, is two points. In general, Valencia's home statistics are 12th in the division, +6=3-5, 21-13 goal difference. Despite the final position in La Liga, Valencia concedes, on average fewer than a goal per game.

Sevilla focuses all their efforts on the Europa League. They did not lose their first UCL quarterfinal against Manchester United, sealing a 2:2 draw. At the same time, Sevilla was already trailing 2:0 by the 21st minute, but they drew thanks to two own goals from Malacia and Maguire. The visitors' chances of the semifinals seem possible. Also, MU is the favorite of the tournament. So if Sevilla can beat them, they may get the title. Sevilla could be better in La Liga, but they are in no danger for now. Valencia is five points behind them. In other words, a draw would be pretty okay.

Valencia has excellent statistics at home under their new coach. We do not doubt that the Bats will try their best to win the upcoming game, not just clinch points. The Sevillians won't mind a draw, which will preserve the point handicap between the opponents. At the same time, Sevilla had an extremely tough midweek in the Europa League. So the coaches shouldn't field the main lineup before the return leg against MU. Valencia has a chance for three points, and as for the total, we do not expect more than two goals.
