Atlético Madrid dominates Sevilla in recent home matches
Sevilla has had a negative balance in their last 15 visits to Atlético Madrid, with only one victory in the colchonero feud since September 2008. The only victory was in January 2018 in the first leg of the Copa del Rey quarter-finals, when the team trained by Vincenzo Montella turned around Diego Costa’s goal (1-2).
In the last five years, Sevilla has only scored in the penultimate matchday of LaLiga 21/22, when they mathematically secured their qualification for the Champions League by drawing En-Nesyri with the goal that Giménez had given the lead to the locals (1-1).
Last season, the Andalusians suffered two defeats at the Metropolitano in just one month, falling by the minimum (1-0) on December 23 and repeating the score on January 25 in the quarterfinals of the Copa. The most recent statistics show a clear local color balance between these two contenders in Madrid since their first match in 1925, as Atlético has won 57 of the 96 matches in the series (60%) compared to 16 victories for Sevilla (16%) and 23 draws recorded (24%)
