Sevilla FC faces a series of complications before its next meeting with Real Madrid, which calls into question the solidity of the squad that has shown a good start to the season. Coach Luis García Plaza is forced to improvise to maintain the defensive block he had built, especially in the midfield, where the absence of key players threatens the team's cohesion.
The injury to Guridi, who has been officially ruled out for the game at the Bernabéu due to an adductor longus injury, leaves a significant gap in the midfield. Georgian midfielder Kochorashvili, who had been training on a limited basis for the past two days, is also facing problems. The player, who started in the duel against Levante, was forced to abandon training after accumulating too many minutes with the national team, which has led the coaching staff to work on him in isolation in the week's sessions. García Plaza plans to take special care of him so that he is available for the match against Real Madrid, although his fitness remains uncertain.
Among the players who remain in the squad, Agoumé and Fofana continue to be central pillars. However, Fofana showed signs of fatigue after the match with Levante, where the home team managed to equalize in the final minutes, evidencing the attacker's lack of energy. Despite this, the midfield remains a risk area, as Kochorashvili is not ruled out but is overstretched and the club is expected to provide more information on his recovery.
In addition to midfield injuries, Sevilla are also missing Miguel Sierra for an extended period. The right back suffered a shoulder dislocation that will require surgery and will keep him out of action until 2027. Isaac Romero will also be unavailable for the match against Real Madrid, as he was sent off after the 2-3 match against Levante, which led to the withdrawal of the stands and his absence in the next match.
With these absences, Sevilla will have to reinforce its central corridor to face Real Madrid. Coach Luis García Plaza must trust in the experience of the remaining players and the team's ability to adapt to overcome the difficulties that arise before their visit to the Bernabéu. The result of the management of the coaching staff and the recovery of the injured players will determine Sevilla's performance in this crucial match.
