Sevilla vs Real Madrid Match Preview: La Liga Clash

Sevilla host Real Madrid at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán on 17 May 2026 in La Liga, Regular Season - 37. Sevilla sit 12th on 43 points, while Real Madrid arrive in 2nd place with 80 points and a goal difference of 39.

Sevilla Availability

Sevilla have two confirmed absentees.

  • Manu Bueno (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • Marcao (Wrist Injury) is sidelined.

Both are depth pieces rather than leading contributors, so Sevilla’s main attacking threats remain intact. Top scorer Akor Adams (10 league goals, 3 assists) and fellow 10-goal attacker Chidera Ejuke are available to start.

Real Madrid Availability

Real Madrid face a longer list of concerns.

  • Dani Ceballos (Coach’s decision) is sidelined.
  • Eder Militao (Muscle Injury) is sidelined.
  • A. Guler (Muscle Injury) is sidelined.
  • F. Mendy (Muscle Injury) is sidelined.
  • Rodrygo (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • A. Lunin (Illness) is doubtful.
  • F. Valverde (Head Injury) is doubtful.

The loss of A. Guler, with 9 league assists and 4 goals, is a major blow to Madrid’s creative output from midfield.

Impact Summary

Sevilla retain their primary scoring duo, preserving most of their 46-goal league output. Real Madrid, who have scored 72 league goals, must compensate for the missing creativity of A. Guler and the attacking depth normally provided by Rodrygo, while also monitoring the fitness of F. Valverde, another key 5-goal, 8-assist contributor.
