**Sevilla (4-3-3)** try to play possession-based football but lack quality in the final third. En-Nesyri and Isaac Romero take turns upfront.

### Key Battles

- **De Paul vs Agoumé**: Midfield tempo control.

- Sevilla away xGA: 1.62/game

### Betting Angles
- **Atletico to win** — home form dominance
- **Under 2.5 goals** — 6 of last 10 Atleti home games
- **Griezmann anytime scorer** — home consistency
- **Both teams to get 2+ cards** — Atleti physicality

### Prediction
Atletico 2-0 Sevilla. Simeone control, Griezmann scores, late second goal seals it.
