Sevilla hosts Real Madrid this Sunday at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan with the clear objective of taking points to avoid falling back into the relegation zone.
The season is about to end, and on this matchday 37, Sevilla faces the challenge of staying away from the relegation zone, and Real Madrid, who no longer have a chance to win the title and have already qualified for the Champions League, will only play for the honor of the shirt and their fans, who have seen their team play poor football.
Injuries and doubts for the match:
Real Madrid: Rodrygo (knee), Arda Guler (hamstring), Eder Militao (hamstring), Ferland Mendy (thigh), and Federico Valverde (head).
Sevilla: Marcao (foot) and Manu Bueno (muscle).
Real Madrid’s possible lineup for the match (4-3-3)
GK: Thibaut Courtois — He continues to return to match rhythm after a couple of months out due to injury.
RB: Trent Alexander-Arnold — A defender who understands the offensive line perfectly, constantly looking to deliver dangerous crosses.
CB: Antonio Rüdiger — A controversial defender because he always looks for rough play and lives on the edge of being sent off; however, coaches trust him.
CB: Raúl Asencio — An underrated defender, he seems not to have the physique or speed to steal balls, but he always ends up doing it without much difficulty.
LB: Fran García — His performance in El Clásico was not as expected, and Arbeloa sent him to the bench against Real Oviedo; now he gets another chance to shine.
CM: Eduardo Camavinga — After receiving the disappointing news that he will not be at the World Cup with France, the player is not in his best mental moment; even so, Arbeloa gives him the opportunity.
CM: Aurélien Tchouaméni — Probably the owner of the midfield, still mired in controversy with Valverde, the player looks to focus on the match, and the coach continues to send him as a starter.
CM: Jude Bellingham — With a hardly impressive season, the Englishman looks to regain the form he had upon his arrival at Real Madrid.
RW: Brahim Díaz — He has good match rhythm; he was among the best against Barcelona.
CF: Vinícius Jr. — He is far from replicating the magic that has made him shine and be a candidate for the Ballon d’Or, but the Brazilian can always give you a flash.
CF: Kylian Mbappé — After being whistled at the Bernabeu, the Frenchman looks to begin his redemption; hopefully, Arbeloa will send him as a starter this time.
Sevilla’s possible lineup for the match (4-4-2)
Goalkeeper: Odysseas Vlachodimos.
Defenders: Gabriel Suazo, Kike Salas, Cesar Azpilicueta, Jose Angel Carmona.
Midfielders: Dodi Lukebakio, Nemanja Gudelj, Lucien Agoume, Ruben Vargas.
Forwards: Neal Maupay, Akor Adams.
