Sevilla FC
- Luis Garcia has been in charge of Sevilla FC since 24th March 2026, but he has really got the Nervionenses into gear since the start of the new season.
- Sevilla have won their following 2 LaLiga 2026/2027 games, which has put them top of the standings with 6 points from 2 games.
- Garcia has given Sevilla a much more pragmatic and compact identity than what we've seen from them in recent years, with their directness providing plenty of attack and plenty of chances to counter-attack when they can get turnover possession.
- Isaac Romero has scored 2 of their 5 goals in their last 5 games and will be a key outlet in the final third, while Chidera Ejuke is their top scorer in LaLiga 2026/2027 after hitting 1 in 2 games.
Atletico Madrid
- Oscar Fernandez has been in charge of Atletico Madrid since 1 July 2021, and while he has clearly got the Colchoneros playing in a similar way to before, there's more of a reliance on structure, control, and transition speed than ever before.
- Atletico Madrid are 4th on the early table with 3 points from their opening game, a 2-0 win at home to Malaga CF.
- However, Atletico's away record leaves something to be desired, winning 1 and losing 2 of their last 3 trips.
- Alejandro Baena is the current top scorer for Atletico Madrid, having hit 1 in 1 LaLiga game, so he comes into this game as the most dangerous player.
- New signing David Hancko has also added some quality from deep and has already provided 1 assist in 1 game.
