Sevilla form & record check
Sevilla FC are currently having a rather mediocre season. Xavier García Pimienta’s team is having enormous problems performing consistently in the current season. The current unbeaten streak of three draws and one win from their last four games is Sevilla’s best run so far this season. They want to continue this trend at home against Barcelona.
Because the goal of European football is far from over. They are currently in twelfth place in the table and, with 28 points, are still four points behind the places that would be enough for the Europa League. With 16 games remaining, anything is still possible.
Offensively too harmless
Sevilla FC are in an attacking crisis this season. With only 24 goals scored in 22 games, the team is one of the less dangerous teams in the league and ranks only 13th in the offensive table. Particularly worrying: Sevilla have been completely without a goal of their own five times this season, and only once have they managed to score more than two goals in a game.
The lack of penetration in front of the opposing goal runs like a red thread through the season. Neither the transition play nor the combination play in offense regularly create danger. Key players like Romero and Lukebakio are having difficulty finding their top form, and there is also too little creative support from midfield.
Sevilla facts & analysis
- Twelfth place
- Unbeaten in last four
- Last league game 0:0 against Getafe
Barcelona Form & Record Check
The Catalans got off to a fantastic start this season, but then went through a dry spell of six league games without a single win. However, they now seem to have redeemed themselves, having recorded three wins and a draw in their last four games.
However, their disastrous spell in the meantime has had consequences. Hansi Flick’s team are now only third in the table and are already four points behind league leaders Real Madrid. They can’t afford to make any more mistakes now.
Strong offense
Unlike Sevilla, Barça can rely on a very strong offense this season. FC Barcelona have been in impressive attacking form this season. With 60 goals scored in 22 games, they have by far the best offense in the league. The Catalans have only gone two games without scoring this season, which underlines their consistency in attack.
Especially in recent weeks, the offense has been in full swing: in the last four league games, Barça scored 14 goals while conceding just three, which underlines their dominance. The forward line of Robert Lewandowski, Lamine Yamal and Raphinha combines speed, skill and composure in front of goal. With this offensive punch, FC Barcelona remain a serious contender for the title. If the Catalans maintain this level, they could cause a sensation not only in the league but also internationally.
Barcelona Facts & Analysis
- Third place
- Unbeaten in last four league games
- Last league game won 1-0 against Alavés
Valencia will likely revert to a 4-3-3 formation, but will be without captain Gudelj through the suspension. He is expected to be replaced by Salas. Níguez could start in a holding midfield role, and in attack, the coach has the choice between Romero and Adams.
The Catalans will probably start in an offensive 4-3-3. There is still a question mark over whether Gavi (concussion) will start, with de Jon or López available to replace him. Otherwise, we do not expect any personnel changes.
