Barcelona vs. Sevilla

In one of the most interesting matches of the 12th round of the Spanish Primera Division, Barcelona meets the team of Sevilla. The meeting is on Saturday at “Camp Nou”. Barcelona is the second in the standings and guests from Sevilla are fifth, but only two points less. At this stage of the championship was expected that Barcelona will have a significant advantage over Sevilla, but at the start the both teams were strong and their form dropped gradually in the last few rounds. Sevilla made their final victory over Barcelona in the distant 2007 year.

Barcelona started the season strongly and in the first eight rounds had no any loss, neither one goal in their net. In the Champions League, Barcelona cracked to Paris Saint Germain, but in the other matches in the group, they won the required number of points and now are sure participant in the knockout phase of the prestigious tournament. The punishment of Suarez expired and he is now online in attack, but even his return could not help Barcelona to deal with Real Madrid. The champions beat them with 3-1 and put them on the second position in the ranking. Then Celta surprised “Camp Nou” with a victory with 0-1 and in the last round with great difficulty, Barcelona managed to turn the result in to 1-2 with Almeria.
In the last round against Almeria, Louis Enrique seriously underestimate their opponents and gave a break to Neymar and Suarez, but thanks to their inclusion in a later stage of the game, the score was corrected. Against Sevilla experiments are forbidden for Barcelona and the team comes with all the best they have. The only missing players are Matthew and Iniesta.

Sevilla are in great shape. Team is just 4 points behind Real Madrid and from the serious rivals they had played only against Atletico Madrid and Valencia. The match with Valencia ended in a draw and Atletico Madrid defeated them with 4-0. In the last two rounds their form dropped and they won only one point. The team is presenting well in the Europa League, where they play really good. Coach Emery rented two players from Barcelona in the face of D. Suarez and Delphi, which have become major and essential players in the club. Against Barcelona, Sevilla will come out with all the best to get at least a point. The only problems in the staff are Mbie and Ibora.

For Sevilla will be hardly to win at the Camp Nou, especially after some lost points by Barcelona. As guests they are not so strong and the experts from… think that they are going to leave with a defeat by at least two goals difference.
