Match at Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán, Sevilla, on 17 May 2026, in La Liga Regular Season - 37, with Sevilla sitting 12th on 43 points and Real Madrid 2nd on 80 points.

Sevilla Availability

Sevilla have two confirmed absentees. Manu Bueno (Knee Injury) is sidelined. Marcão (Wrist Injury) is sidelined. Both are longer-term issues, but Sevilla’s main attacking threats Akor Adams (10 league goals) and Chidera Ejuke (10 league goals) are available to lead the line.

Real Madrid Availability

Real Madrid face a more crowded list. Dani Ceballos (Coach’s decision) is sidelined. Éder Militão (Muscle Injury) is sidelined. A. Güler (Muscle Injury) is sidelined. F. Mendy (Muscle Injury) is sidelined. Rodrygo (Knee Injury) is sidelined. In addition, A. Lunin (Illness) is doubtful. F. Valverde (Head Injury) is doubtful. The loss of A. Güler, who has 9 assists and 4 goals, is a major blow to Madrid’s creativity from midfield.

Impact Summary

Sevilla retain their full attacking core, with Adams and Ejuke accounting for 20 league goals between them. Real Madrid still have their top scorers Kylian Mbappé (24 goals, 5 assists) and Vinícius Júnior (15 goals, 5 assists) available, but the absence of Güler and potential limitation of Valverde remove a significant share of their chance creation and midfield balance.
