Sevilla vs Huesca
Spain-La Liga
Date: Saturday, 13 February 2021
Kick-off at 15:15 UK/ 16:15 CET
Venue: Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan (Sevilla).
Buoyed by a thrilling 3-0 win over Getafe, Sevilla will be looking to cement their spot in top four when they take on Huesca in the La Liga round 23.
Los Sevillanos impressed on Papu Gomez’s full La Liga debut, and, no doubt, the former Atalanta playmaker is going to help the team improve offensively.
The Andalusians are a real force to be reckoned with at home, and you should bear in mind that they are eyeing their eighth home triumph of the process.
Huesca, on the other hand, failed to claim a major scalp on Matchday 23, with the team losing to Real Madrid in their last league match.
The relegation strugglers do not seem to be competitive at this level, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Sevilla’s party at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.
Sevilla boss Julen Lopetegui will watch the game from the stands following his sending off in the win over Getafe.
