Sevilla will take on Alaves on Sunday, 20 April in a huge match at the bottom of the La Liga table.
The hosts, who are more used to chasing European honours than battling relegation, find themselves at danger of dropping down a division after a string of terrible results in the league.
Alaves, on the other hand, have been performing well in recent weeks and look like a side that will beat the drop.
As part of this week's round of La Liga betting tips, check out our Sevilla vs Alaves prediction below.

Key stats

Sevilla preview: A third dismal season in a row
After finishing inside the top seven in La Liga every season from 2013 to 2022, Sevilla have endured a spectacular fall from grace over the past three seasons, and things are getting worse rather than better. In 2022/23, they finished 12th while last season they finished 14th. This time around, they are on track to finish even lower, and relegation isn't out of the question yet.

Alaves preview: Finding form at the right time
Alaves looked like prime candidates to be relegated a month ago, but they have sprung into action at the right time, and they are now out of the drop zone by the skin of their teeth. What happens next remains to be seen, but they have shown enough quality in recent weeks to suggest they will have enough to stay up.

Player to watch: Enrique Garcia
If it wasn’t for Enrique Garcia, then it isn’t a stretch to say that Alaves would already be a relegated team. The vastly experienced forward has somehow found a new gear in his 35th year and has hit double digits for just the second time in his La Liga career. Can Garcia now get Alaves over the line?
