Posted by Sevilla overtook Barcelona and Real Madrid and climbed up at the very top of the league standings after a streak of four consecutive wins in the competition.
Sevilla, on the other hand, have won their last four – including a 3-0 defeat of Real Madrid – and are clearly one of the form teams in the Spanish league.
Nevertheless, the international break will have given Barcelona a chance to take stock and their record against Sevilla speaks for itself. Nine wins and a draw in the last ten matches between the two show Barcelona’s quality.
TEAM NEWS:
Barca's Luis Suarez will hope to be fit to face Sevilla after missing Uruguay’s international friendlies against South Korea and Japan to work on correcting his minor knee injury. Ernesto Valverde is short at the back, however, having seen Thomas Vermaelen pick up a knee injury on international duty to join fellow centre-back Samuel Umtiti on the sidelines. Clement Lenglet will therefore start at centre-back alongside Gerard Pique.
Sevilla's Gabriel Mercado, Sergio Escudero and Ibrahim Amadou are all out with arm injuries, but Sevilla have welcomed Maxime Gonalons back to training this week – though he will not be fit to face Barcelona. Aleix Vidal returned to the bench last time out, and is in contention to face his former team, but Jesus Navas is likely to continue at right wing-back.
TEAM FORM:
Barcelona are without a win in their last four La Liga games (drawn three, lost one) and their only win in their last five matches was at Wembley in the UEFA Champions League against Tottenham Hotspur.
Sevilla have won four of their last five games, with all four wins coming in La Liga and their solitary defeat being a 2-1 reverse in Krasnodar in the Europa League. They returned to winning ways with a 6-2 win against Levante and have not looked back since. Wissam Ben Yedder scored a hat-trick that day, and he added another after Andre Silva’s double in the 3-0 win at home to Real Madrid. Silva and two Ever Banega’s goals secured a 3-1 win away to Eibar next up and, after the Europa League loss, they got back on track with a 2-1 home win against ten-man Celta Vigo last time out.
POSSIBLE LINEUPS:
Barcelona (4-3-3): Marc-Andre ter Stegen; Nelson Semedo, Gerard Pique, Clement Lenglet, Jordi Alba; Ivan Rakitic, Sergio Busquets, Philippe Coutinho; Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Ousmane Dembele.
Sevilla (3-4-1-2): Tomas Vaclik; Daniel Carrico, Simon Kjaer, Sergi Gomez; Jesus Navas, Ever Banega, Franco Vazquez, Guilherme Arana; Pablo Sarabia; Wissam Ben Yedder, Andre Silva.
KEY STATS:
Barca 3-1 Sevilla — No doubt, this game is an over 3.5 tie. And Barcelona are favourites to beat Sevilla despite being without a win in four games. They have nine wins in their last ten meetings with Sevilla and this is their chance to make it ten from 11 to return to the top of the league table.

KEY STATS:
- Barcelona are unbeaten in their last ten matches against Sevilla, and have lost just one of the last 23.
That lone Sevilla win came in October 2015, in Seville, since when Barcelona have won nine and drawn one of the ten subsequent fixtures.
- Among those victories are Barcelona’s 2-1 win in the Super Cup earlier this season, when Pablo Sarabia gave Sevilla the lead but Gerard Pique and Ousmane Dembele turned the game around.
- Their last meeting before that was in the Copa del Rey final, when Luis Suarez scored twice and Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and Philippe Coutinho once each in a 5-0 Barcelona win.
Barca 3-1 Sevilla — No doubt, this game is an over 3.5 tie. And Barcelona are favourites to beat Sevilla despite being without a win in four games. They have nine wins in their last ten meetings with Sevilla and this is their chance to make it ten from 11 to return to the top of the league table.
