Sevilla
When a team prepare for celebrations before the game is played, they usually have to postpone the party because they fail to record a desired result. Number of teams saw that happening to them and Sevilla fans are preparing the celebrations due to the team’s return to Champions League. The team that have been near the top of Spanish football for years and the same one who won several trophies in the last few years should not be celebrating a Champions League place as that is something that should be expected of them. Considering that they were eliminated from UEFA Cup and Copa del Rey early on, the third place in Primera should not be considered a big success. However, the people in Andalucia are just looking for the reason to have a fiesta, thus the aforementioned party. Sevilla will play very difficult opponents, who usually play very well on the travels. Deportivo will be very motivated in this match and they will try to take advantage of Sevilla’s inconsistency. Sevilla largely struggled last weekend in Pamplona and they were lucky to escape with a draw. The individual quality of the players only helps from time to time and they are likely to have big problems in this match, especially as the visitors are very organized and work well as a team.

Deportivo La Coruna
This is the game of the season for Depor. Their UEFA Cup ambitions depend solely on this match. The good run of results gives them reason to hope for a good result in Seville. Depor have been very good on the travels this season, taking 22 points from 18 away games, which is a solid result. Sevilla, on the other hand, lost 6 home games this season and that is why Deportivo is not without chances in this match. The team from La Coruna missed a great chance to beat Getafe at home as they conceded an equalizer late into the game. Miguel Angel Lotina believes that his players will continue the good run on the travels, having taken seven points from last three away games. Lotina will probably name an unchanged line-up to that which played Getafe. Joan Verdu, Juan Rodriguez and Guardado are in very good form, whereas defence are playing really well lately and that should be the key to the good result in Seville.
