Espanyol Barcelona vs Sevilla FC: 11 goals scored, 9 conceded between them 
Eleven scored and nine shipped in three rounds: Espanyol and Sevilla have piled up 20 goals across their six matches. That is miles above the league average.
Kick-off is set for Sunday, September 6 at 21:00, Spanish time, at the RCDE Stadium. This fourth round closes out La Liga’s Sunday schedule.
The Catalans sit 11th with three points, the Andalusians 6th with six. Three points separate the clubs.
Espanyol started sharply with a 3-0 win over Levante, before falling 2-1 to Real Madrid and then 2-1 at Real Sociedad. Two straight defeats, but they have scored in every game.
Sevilla beat Rayo Vallecano 2-1, won 3-1 away at Athletic Bilbao, then lost 3-1 at home to Atletico Madrid. Same story every time: they score, and they concede.
Neither side has managed a clean sheet since the opening day. Sevilla have not kept one at all this season.
The two back lines have shipped four and five goals respectively, high numbers for teams in the top half. The attack has papered over it with five and six goals.
This one is all about the goals it should produce. The last six matches involving these two clubs have all seen at least one side score twice.
None of those six games finished 0-0. Every one of them produced at least three goals.
Espanyol Barcelona always score, and often concede 
Five goals scored, four conceded, three points: Espanyol’s return after three rounds is decent at best. 11th place reflects a goal difference that is only just on the right side of zero.
That opening-day 3-0 win over Levante looked like the perfect launch. The next two outings brought the exact same result, a 2-1 defeat.
Those losses to Real Madrid and Real Sociedad had one thing in common: Espanyol scored in both. They have not gone a game without a goal since the restart.
Both defeats came by the same 2-1 margin. Espanyol have not been beaten by more than one goal this season.
Roberto Fernandez is carrying most of the threat with three goals in three rounds. He has scored more than half of the team’s total.
Tyrhys Dolan and Cala have one each. The dependence on Roberto Fernandez is clear enough in attack.
Javi Hernandez is also joint top of the assist chart with three in three matches. The link-up between the pair is Espanyol’s main weapon.
Marko Dmitrovic has already been beaten four times, including twice at home against Real Madrid. The defence, built around Unai Nunez and Omar El Hilali, has not kept a clean sheet since the opener.
Try it for $0.99.
Sevilla FC swing from very good to very bad 
Two wins, one defeat, six points: Sevilla are still moving in the right direction despite a flat last outing. 6th place fits the pattern of a side that cannot quite settle.
The 3-1 win at San Mames against Athletic Bilbao is the standout result so far. Not many sides go there and win by two.
The 3-1 home defeat to Atletico Madrid in round three quickly dragged that back down to earth. Sevilla have not kept a clean sheet all season.
They have scored in all three games, including that defeat. No blank for Sevilla since the restart.
Their scoring has been spread around: five current squad players have scored once each. Miguel Sierra, Jon Guridi, Peque, Isaac Romero and Chidera Ejuke share the goals.
The club’s sixth scorer since the restart, Joaquin Oso, left Sevilla at the end of August 2026 to join RC Strasbourg. His exit removes a player who had already made two telling contributions this season.
Robbie Ure and Isaac Romero have the other assists for the group. No Sevilla player has been decisive more than twice.
Odisseas Vlachodimos has conceded five goals in three matches, the worst total among the teams in the top half of the table. Taking that kind of defensive wobble to the RCDE Stadium leaves Sevilla exposed in what should be a wide-open game.

La Liga prediction Espanyol Barcelona vs Sevilla FC
Our pick: Both teams to score
Espanyol have scored in all three league games this season, and Sevilla have as well. None of the six matches played by the two clubs has ended without goals from either side.
The defensive numbers back it up. Sevilla have conceded in all three outings, Espanyol in two of them. Nine goals shipped between them in three rounds.
The six matches involving these clubs have produced 20 goals in total, an average of 3.3 per game. None has dipped under three.
Both teams can find the net at the RCDE Stadium. This bet rests on two reliable attacks going after two defences that have not kept pace since the restart.

First, a word on our free predictions
- What we publish on mathodds is analysis, nothing more. We are sharing an opinion, a reading of the moment, but never a guarantee. Sport is what it is: unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a goal from nowhere… and the script changes completely.
- Let’s be clear: there is no such thing as a risk-free bet. Even when it looks obvious, nothing really is. And yes, that means you can lose. At some point, you will.
- The smart move is to keep it sensible. Bet small, set a budget and stick to it. Do not touch money you need to live on. And above all: do not chase losses, because that rarely ends well.
- A bet should stay a game, not a job or a source of income. If you feel it is taking up too much space in your daily life, if it is winding you up or putting you under pressure, take a break. And if needed, speak to a specialist service. That is what it is there for.
- In the end, responsibility is yours. Reading our content means accepting that risk exists and will never go away, even with the best analysis in the world.
- Important reminder: betting is banned for minors and must comply with the law in your country. Gambling can spiral fast (money loss, family tension, addiction). Need Help? Call 1-800-GAMBLER. In the UK? Visit https://www.gambleaware.org/https://www.gambleaware.org/.
No commitment from us
Our predictions are not a contract. They have no legal force. In plain English: you cannot use them to claim anything if a bet loses.
Information that can change
A prediction is always based on what is known at the time it is written. But in the meantime, a line-up changes (like Sevilla FC’s, for example), a player gets injured, the weather turns… and the analysis can quickly go stale. We cannot be held responsible for that.
Your role
Before you bet, just check that betting is legal where you are. If it is not, that is your responsibility, not ours.
Responsible gambling first
