Real Madrid vs Sevilla latest odds

Madrid are unbeaten at home in the league since January and bet365 offer the hosts at 13/20 (1.65) to claim three points.

Real Madrid vs Sevilla first goalscorer

The 13-time European champions boast the two most prolific strikers in La Liga with Karim Benzema leading the way on 10 goals and Vinicius Junior just behind him on eight strikes.

The Frenchman can be backed at 3/1 (4.00) to break the deadlock with Vinicius offered at a healthy looking 6/1 (7.00).

The visitors' attack is likely to be led by Rafa Mir and the former Valencia man can be backed at 9/1 (10.00).

Real Madrid vs Sevilla preview

Sevilla head to the Spanish capital with a number of injury problems, missing top scorer from last season Youssef En Nesyri along with Jesus Navas and Erik Lamela.

There are also doubts about centre-back pairing Jules Kounde and Diego Carlos along with forwards Lucas Ocampos and Suso, meaning Julen Lopetegui has a number of issues when it comes to selecting a starting XI.

The Andalusians also boast an awful record away to Real Madrid and backing the hosts to claim a victory against their injury-hit opponents should be appealing.

Real Madrid vs Sevilla tips & predictions

Los Blancos are the top scoring side in La Liga and backing them to win and score over 1.5 goals at evens (2.00) makes plenty of sense.
