The
Atlético de Madrid faces a critical test in their fight for the title in the visit to the Seville. The Real Madrid has shortened distances to three points, and the Barcelona He is four points away before playing this Monday, against Real Valladolid.
The Athletic he has lost a double-digit lead in the past two months with just four wins in nine rounds. The game faces the two toughest defenders in the league. The Athletic he has allowed 18 goals, the league's lowest; he is followed by Seville with 21.
In other words, the forwards will have a tough test ahead of them. Much of the options for each team will depend on the success of two of the best gunners in the competition. For the local team, Youssef En-Nesyri. For the visitor, Luis Suarez.
The rojiblanco is the second top scorer in The league, with 19 goals, the same as Gerard, just behind Leo
Messi, which adds up to 23. For its part, En-Nesyri he is the fifth highest scorer in the competition, with 15 goals to his credit.
What the strikers agree on is that they are two real “pencil sharpeners.” They are two of the three players who have reported the most direct points to their respective teams with their goals. Suárez is the one with the most, with 17 direct points. The Moroccan Seville is the third, with 13 points. The second in this particular table is Gerard
Brown, with 16.
If we place the two gunners face to face, with their data in the League, we observe that the rojiblanco scores a goal every 103.4 minutes, while the African every 112.5 minutes. The Uruguayan has scored three penalty goals while his rival none. They are both area forwards. The sevillista has made all of his tanos from within, while Suarez He has only scored one from the outside, curiously from a direct free kick.
