SPAIN: LaLiga - Sevilla VS Barcelona, Analysis, Stats and Match Preview

This is the standout fixture this Saturday in La Liga. Barcelona’s trip to Sevilla represents one of their biggest remaining tests as they seek to defend their Primera Division crown. After Real Madrid lost last weekend, Barca have a 7 point advantage again at the top and they will have one hand on the trophy if they can come through this next week relatively unscathed, with the clasico to come next weekend.

Both clubs were involved in European action on Wednesday night. Sevilla saw off Lazio with a comfortable 3-0 aggregate win to lay the foundations for another strong push in that competition.

Barcelona haven’t been setting the world on fire of late either but they would probably have been content to draw 0-0 away to Lyon in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

Preview

Europa League progression may have boosted morale, but Sevilla remain with just one win in their last five La Liga (LL) matches (W1, D1, L3). However their home form is promising (W7, D3, L1), although in this encounter they face a strong travelling Barcelona side that’s recorded the exact same results away.

Sevilla have been an impressive second-half side at the Sánchez Pizjuán this league campaign, with only two teams registering a better second-half goal difference at home than Sevilla’s +11. In fact no LL club has conceded less than the three total goals they’ve conceded after half-time at home.
