Sevilla will take on Real Valladolid on Tuesday, 24 September with both teams looking to earn their second victories of the new La Liga season.
The hosts won their most recent match at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium so will be looking forward to returning home after another loss on the road at the weekend.
Real Vallodolid, meanwhile, haven't won a game since the opening weekend of the season and have lost all three of their away matches so far.
How the bookies view it: Sevilla start as favourites
Neither team have a great deal of form coming into the match but Sevilla have been priced as the favourites with the bookies. Betfred have priced a Sevilla win at 8/11 while a win for Real Valladolid has been priced at 4/1. The draw, which would be a better result for the visitors given their away record, has been priced at 13/5.
Recent head-to-head: Draws galore
This is a fixture that has produced plenty of draws over the years, so the price of 13/5 for another stalemate is excellent. Four of the last five matches between Sevilla and Real Valladolid have ended all square with each one finishing 1-1.
Beyond that, Sevilla are unbeaten in their last eleven matches against Real Valladolid with their last defeat coming back in 2012.
Players to watch: Forwards feeding off scraps
Both teams have struggled for goals this season but it hasn't been a case of forwards missing easy chances but rather a case of the service up to them being well below the required standard.
Real Valladolid have only scored two league goals all season, with both of them coming through Raul Moro. The highly-rated youngster also plays for Spain's under-21s and has the quality to put the ball in the back of the net if the ball can be delivered into the box more regularly.
Sevilla have been slightly more prolific, netting five times in their opening six league fixtures. Dodi Lukebakio, who is now in his second season with the club, has got two of those goals, including a late consolation against Alaves at the weekend.
The Belgian is getting better service than his opposite number and will be feeling confident ahead of this one after his strike at the weekend.
Predicted line-ups
Sevilla welcomed Saul back into the team at the weekend but they still have four injured players for this one with h Djibril Sow, Isaac Romero, Sambi Lokonga and Marcao all out. Real Valladolid's only injury doubts for this one are Cenk Ozkacar and Anuar Tuhami but Mario Martin will return after serving his suspension.
Barcelona: Nyland – Sanchez, Nianzou, Salas, Pedrosa – Saul, Gudelj, Agoume – Lukebakio, Iheanacho, Fernandez
Getafe: Hein – Perez, Bah, Torres, Rosa – Meseguer, Machis, Perez, Juric – Moro, Latasa
Anything else catch the eye?
Sevilla have only scored two goals at home so far this season while Real Valladolid have only scored two goals away from home. Don't expect a classic and a fifth 1-1 draw in six matches wouldn't be a surprise to anyone. Under 2.5 goals to be scored on Tuesday has been priced at 4/5.
