With the season drawing to a close, clashes from the lower part of the table usually become extra heated due to the strive to survive. This game is exactly that, even if Sevilla is almost certain to avoid dropping to La Liga 2. But Granada are within the relegation zone before the start of the fixture and will try their hardest to perform another miracle and survive in Spain’s top flight.
Sevilla Team News
After a disappointing start to the season and spending much time in the relegation zone, Sevilla has managed to stabilize and now sit comfortably in the mid-table. Although their mathematical survival in La Liga can be confirmed this week, so there is still motivation in the team. A good run of recent which includes 5 wins, 3 draws and just 2 losses in the last 10 league games, has propelled Los Nervionenses to the 13th spot. At home, Sevilla have won 3 of their last 5 La Liga fixtures and have managed to both score and concede at least a goal in their latest 3.
Granada CF Team News
Although sitting at 19th before heading to the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán, Granada has some cause for optimism as they are unbeaten in their last 3 league games. Two home wins and a vital point away at Bilbao have revitalized the team’s hopes of survival. What’s more – Granada kept two clean sheets in those 3 games. Look at the details, though, and you will see that those 2 wins are at home and that José Ramón Sandoval’s men have yet to secure an away win in the league this season. So with that information, we can safely deduce that their trip to Sevilla will be a daunting task, to say the least.
Head-to-Head-Games
Sevilla have won 3 of the last 5 games with Granada, while the latter have claimed two victories. At the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán, Sevilla is on a 4-win streak against Granada. In each of those 4 games Los Nervionenses have scored at least 2 goals, but in their latest two they have also conceded some as well.

Sevilla – Granada CF Betting Prediction
For Sevilla this might be a ”nothing game” but their survival in La Liga is yet to be mathematically confirmed, so I expect that the motivation will come from this fact. While winning 2 of the last 3 games, Granada is yet to secure an away win in La Liga this season and in a historical sense games against Sevilla have been troublesome for the Nasrids. This is why my pick here will be for the hosts to win this match and finally confirm their survival in the top flight.
