Sevilla, seven-time Europa League champions, are fighting relegation for the second consecutive season after finishing 17th last year. Currently 16th, just 3 points above the relegation zone, they have lost their last 4 matches in all competitions without scoring. Their away record this season is 3 wins in 9 games, with no away wins since October.
Elche, a newly promoted side, have performed better than expected and sit 6 points clear of the relegation zone. At home, they are strong with 5 wins, 1 draw, and only 1 loss in 10 games, the defeat coming to Villarreal.
