AI summary
Sevilla host bottom-placed Valencia on Friday evening looking to maintain their promising start to the season. The hosts have won admirers with seven points from 12, though García Plaza knows not to underestimate opponents who have managed only one goal in four matches. Valencia arrive at the Sánchez-Pizjuán reeling from a five-goal defeat to Barcelona and struggling with injuries in defence, with Guido and Rioja unavailable and De Haas's return forced by necessity rather than fitness.
The key battle will be in midfield, where Sevilla's new signing Fofana—despite showing rust in his debut—represents a quality upgrade, while Valencia's Elliott makes his first start after debuting last weekend. Sevilla are favoured to extend their run.
