Barcelona vs Sevilla: Match Preview and Expert Football Prediction

La Liga leaders Barcelona will welcome struggling La Liga giants Sevilla to Camp Nou this Sunday for their 20th fixture of the league season.

The Catalan side are enjoying good results and performance in La Liga this season as they sit top of the league table, ahead of Real Madrid.

They come into this tie on the back of a well-fought 2-1 win over Real Betis that saw them reach 50 points for the season. They could see their lead cut to two by kick-off, given that Madrid will play before them.

However, with a record of having won the title in four of the five previous occasions they’ve picked up 50+ points at this stage, Xavi’s side are “on a good path” to title success.

After a series of poor results and being stuck in the relegation zone, Sevilla are now on a good path towards survival.

The visitors have managed to climb into mid-table with three wins across their last four league games (L1), giving them a two-point cushion to the relegation zone after 19 matches. 

However, they could still be dragged back into the red zone by kick-off, given that the teams below them play earlier.

That fact only adds to the weight of history as Jorge Sampaoli’s men have failed to win a La Liga H2H since October 2015 (D4, L10).

But given that they have netted in each of their last nine away league games, eight times exactly once, they will fancy their chances of bridging a stubborn Barcelona backline.

However, given that Barcelona have enjoyed narrow wins in their last three home games, the accurate prediction for this game will be Under 1.5 goals.
