Barcelona vs Sevilla Prediction: La Liga Primera
Barcelona face Sevilla this Sunday in La Liga at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, where the hosts will look to extend their lead at the top of the table. Barcelona have been in dominant form, while Sevilla have struggled this season but have shown signs of improvement recently.
With Barcelona eyeing a crucial win ahead of their tough fixtures against Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, this match could see some tactical surprises.
Barcelona Recent Form
Barcelona have been impressive this season, winning 8 of their 9 La Liga matches. Their only slip came in a surprising 4-2 loss to Osasuna, but they responded with commanding wins over Young Boys (5-0) and Alaves (3-0). The Catalans currently sit atop the table with 24 points and the league’s best attacking record, scoring 28 goals.
Injury and team news
Barcelona’s injury list includes key players like Ferran Torres, Marc-André ter Stegen, Andreas Christensen, and Ronald Araújo. However, both Robert Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal are expected to return after minor issues during the international break.
Wojciech Szczesny is also available for selection, although Iñaki Peña will likely continue in goal. Gavi, Fermin Lopez, and Dani Olmo are recovering but unlikely to start.
Last Barcelona Lineup
Here is how Barcelona lined up for their last match against Alaves:
Sevilla Recent Form
Sevilla have endured a mixed start, winning only 3 of their 9 league matches. However, recent form has improved, with the team picking up 7 points from their last 3 matches, including a 1-0 win over Real Betis in the Seville derby.
They currently sit 12th in the table with 12 points, showing defensive resilience but struggling to find consistency away from home.
Injury and team news
Sevilla will be without Saul Niguez and Djibril Sow due to injuries, while Tanguy Nianzou is suspended after his red card in the derby against Betis.
Kike Salas is expected to step into the defence, while Isaac Romero is likely to lead the attack, supported by Peque Fernandez.
Last Sevilla Lineup
Here is how Sevilla lined up against Real Betis:
Barcelona Player to Watch
Robert Lewandowski: With 10 goals in 9 league appearances, Lewandowski remains Barcelona’s most potent threat. His ability to find space and finish clinical chances will be pivotal in breaking down Sevilla’s defence.
Sevilla Player to Watch
Isaac Romero: Sevilla’s young striker has been impressive, leading the line with energy and poise. Romero will be key to any counter-attacking opportunities Sevilla get.
Prediction
Barcelona have dominated this fixture in recent history, winning their last five meetings with Sevilla. While Sevilla have improved in recent weeks, it’s hard to see them halting a strong Barcelona side at home.
We predict a comfortable 2-0 victory for Barcelona.
Betting Tips
Tip 1
Barcelona to win: With their current form and home advantage, Barcelona are firm favourites.
Tip 2
Under 2.5 goals: Sevilla’s recent games have been tight affairs, and Barcelona may manage the game cautiously with upcoming fixtures.
Tip 3
Robert Lewandowski to score anytime: The Polish striker has been in exceptional form and is always a reliable bet for goals.
