The upcoming Copa del Rey quarter-final between Atletico Madrid and Sevilla, scheduled for January 25, 2024 at 9pm WAT, promises to be an exciting encounter. The match is set to take place at the Estadio Civitas Metropolitano in Madrid

Atletico Madrid, under the guidance of Diego Simeone, have demonstrated a tactically sound style of play. They have shown resilience, bouncing back from setbacks, and have been scoring an average of 2.35 goals per game.

Their recent victory over Real Madrid in the previous round of the Copa Del Rey and a 1-0 win over Granada in La Liga are indicative of their form. Key players for Atletico Madrid include Antoine Griezmann, who continues to be the team's creator-in-chief, and Alvaro Morata, who is expected to lead the attack. 

The team will, however, be missing Thomas Lemar, Cesar Azpilicueta, Vitolo, and potentially Angel Correa.

Sevilla, despite being inconsistent in La Liga, have shown some brilliance. They are averaging 1.30 goals per game and have shown tenacity in tough games.

Their Copa Del Rey journey has been positive, with recent victories, although they are grappling with injuries and will miss players like Nemanja Gudelj, Dodi Lukebakio, and Kike Salas. Key players for Sevilla in this match could include Ivan Rakitic and Erik Lamela, with Isaac Romero Bernal expected to lead the attack.

Historically, the matches between these two teams have been closely contested.

Atletico Madrid holds a slight edge in recent encounters, including a 1-0 victory in their last meeting.

Given Atletico Madrid's strong attacking form and home advantage, they are slightly favored to win this encounter.

 However, Sevilla's ability to pull off surprise performances should not be underestimated. The match is likely to be tense, with goals expected from both sides.
