Sunday 31st January 2016 – Kickoff: 1200hrs
Football – Spain – La Liga Betting Tips
The lunchtime kickoff today in Spain features hosts Sevilla taking on bottom club Levante at the Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán with the home side searching for all three points which could lift them up into one of the Europa League spots in the division.
Sevilla have lost just once in their last nine in La Liga which was a 2-1 loss away at Granada, but they’ve recently accounted for Athletic Bilbao and Malaga on home turf amidst an overall home record of 9-0-2 23/11 and indeed the hosts have been in supreme form lately on home turf.
After losing their first two home matches of the new campaign, Sevilla have really kicked into gear and have won their last nine on the trot, covering the asian -1 line on four occasions along with five pushes during this sequence. Striker Gameiro looks the most likely anytime goalscorer for the hosts today.
Visitors Levante currently sit bottom of La Liga but they are just two points adrift of Rayo Vallecano and safety as we head into this round of crucial fixtures. Perhaps unsurprisingly, most of Levante’s limited successes have been on home turf while their away record stands at a poor 1-2-7 8/21.
This is also reflected in Levante’s recent matches as they’ve recorded home wins over Rayo Vallecano and Las Palmas but have lost on the road at Athletic Bilbao, Atletico Madrid and Celta Vigo.
In addition, Levante have lost all five encounters away from home against top half oposition so far this season in a wretched 0-0-5 4/14 record and have failed to cover the -1 line in three of the five matches to date.
Pick: Sevilla AH-1 @ 1.60 Bet Victor
