Odds: 11/10 odds taken 21:55 GMT Sunday 28 June
Leganes look as if they are going to be playing back in the second tier of Spanish football next season.
They are nine points away from safety and with a mammoth task on their hands to get and no form behind them whatsoever.
That could be good news for the visiting Sevilla who will be on the hunt for a big three points to try and help them lock down a top-four finish.

Leganes Preview – Struggling Leganes unlikely to produce a win
It is a five match winless streak of form that Leganes are currently on in La Liga.
They are sitting second from bottom and nine points away from safety.
Considering that they have only won five times this season, seeing them turn this round in their final six games is implausible at best.
They are the lowest scoring side in the top flight currently, having only netted 24 goals in their 32 fixtures.
Since returning from the enforced break, Leganes are now winless in five games, picking up two points in that sequence.
Their last league game was on Saturday when they lost 2-1 away at Osasuna.
The home record of Leganes this season is W4 D4 L8 and they are without a win in four on home turf in league action.
They have scored a clean sheet in a quarter of their home fixtures only. Two of those have been inside their last four home league games.
But just in general, they concede heavily. Leganes have shipped an average of 2.19 goals against them per home game this season.
It’s also worth noting that three of their four home successes in this campaign were against the others currently sitting inside the bottom four along with them.
With them coming up short at producing under a goal per home game, it’s hard to see where a win would come from for them in this.
One other thing that needs to be looked at is the home form of Leganes against the top sides.
They have lost all four games played on home turf against teams currently sitting in the top four, scoring just one goal across those fixtures.
Sevilla Preview – Easy away points coming up for Sevilla?
Sevilla are on a four match sequence of drawn games currently. Since their return they are W1 D4.
That has been enough to keep them inside the top four, but they have the bang in-form Villarreal now breathing down their necks only three points back.
So there is a bit of pressure starting to mount on them. That having been said, they are on an excellent nine match unbeaten streak of league form (W3 D6).
So by no means do they look likely to suffer a loss in this one.
Sevillla are undefeated in their last four away games, drawing each of the last three played. Two of those were tough ones at Atletico Madrid and Villarreal too.
The overall away record of Sevilla this season in La Liga is W7 D5 L4.
Two of their away losses happened at Eibar and Celta Vigo, who are currently sitting in the bottom five of the table.
