Valencia have made a terrible start to the 2026/27 La Liga season. After four rounds, the team nicknamed Los Che are still without a win, having drawn once and lost three times. Their latest result was a humiliating 0-5 defeat at home to defending champions Barcelona at Mestalla. Given their poor form, Valencia would theoretically have little hope of picking up points at the Sanchez Pizjuan in this early Round 5 fixture. However, in reality, Carlos Corberan's side do have a chance. Statistics show that Valencia have not been particularly poor away from home, losing just one of their last four away games in La Liga. More importantly, Valencia have never regarded the Sanchez Pizjuan as a particularly intimidating venue. In their last four visits to Sevilla, they have remained unbeaten, recording two wins and two draws. In fact, in the second leg of La Liga last season, Valencia comfortably defeated Sevilla 2-0 away from home, with goals from Hugo Duro and Largie Ramazani. Sevilla have made a relatively solid start to this season's La Liga campaign. After four rounds, they have suffered just one defeat and currently sit seventh in the standings. However, looking at the bigger picture, the Andalusian side have problems: they have lost three, drawn one and won just two of their last six La Liga matches. Sevilla's biggest weakness lies in their vulnerable defense. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last eight La Liga matches. Their main problem is a lack of defensive cohesion when transitioning from attack to defense, which often leaves the back line exposed and stretched. Therefore, Valencia still have a good chance of finding the net and leaving with at least a point. It should be remembered that, despite their poor overall form, Los Che can be dangerous when attacking down the flanks. They make good use of the mobility of their full-backs to deliver crosses and low balls into the opposition penalty area. This style of play could cause Sevilla plenty of problems, particularly with center-back Arouna Sangante suspended for this match. In conclusion, although Valencia are the underdogs, they have a strong chance of leaving the Sanchez Pizjuan with a draw.
