Following his 3-2 defeat to Valencia and 1-1 draw with Villarreal, Quique Sánchez Flores could fail to win any of his first three Primera División games with a team for the fourth time, after accomplishing this feat with Getafe in 2004 (L3), Atlético de Madrid in 2009 (L3) and Espanyol in 2016 (D2 L1) - he only managed to win in his first three Primera División games with Sevilla in 2024 (W1 D2) and Valencia in 2005 (W1 D2).

Lucas Boyé is enjoying his most prolific Primera División campaign (9 goals in 22 games for Deportivo Alavés), but he has only faced Sevilla more often in the competition without scoring (P10) than he has Celta de Vigo (P8, level with Barcelona).
