Overview
Only a lunatic would have predicted Barcelona would easily qualify for the top four in October. After a disastrous start to the season, the Catalans found themselves in the bottom half of the table, with no hope in sight.
The tables have turned a few months into Xavi’s tenure. The Blaugranes are now in a strong position to finish second in the league, and a victory on Sunday would ensure that.
Barcelona has gone undefeated in their last twelve games, scoring four goals in six of them. They most recently thrashed La Liga leaders Real Madrid in a ruthless fashion at the Santiago Bernabeu. Barcelona now wants to knock Sevilla out of second place after defeating Los Blancos.
What can you expect from a trip to Barcelona?
Barcelona’s resurgence has resulted in several players receiving international call-ups once more. Nearly seven garnet and blue players are now part of the Spanish national team.
Ronald Araujo, Frenkie de Jong, and Memphis Depay, to name a few, all had a busy international break. It will be interesting to see if Xavi chooses to shuffle his cards for their first game in two weeks.
On the night, Marc-Andre ter Stegen will start in goal. The German played in his country’s match against Israel, but he was benched for the next match against the Netherlands. He’ll try to keep his third straight clean sheet.
Gerard Pique is rumored to be considering returning from retirement for the 2022 World Cup. He was not involved with the La Roja setup during the break, so he will be fresh for the match against Sevilla.
