Sevilla vs Barcelona prediction, preview, team news and more | La Liga 2022-23

Barcelona are back in action with another important La Liga fixture this weekend as they take on Sevilla on Saturday. Both teams can pack a punch on their day and will want to win this game.

Sevilla are currently in 15th place in the La Liga standings and have failed to meet expectations so far. The Andalusian outfit slumped to a shock 2-1 defeat against Almeria last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.

Barcelona, on the other hand, are in third place in the league table at the moment and have been impressive so far this season. The Catalan giants eased past Real Valladolid by a 4-0 scoreline in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
