⁠Barcelona vs Sevilla Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Blaugrana are flying under Hansi Flick this season.

With the October international break over, we have an exciting clash coming up in round ten of LaLiga action. Hansi Flick’s Barcelona welcome Sevilla at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys on Sunday aiming to secure their third consecutive victory in a row. 

Barcelona have become a force under Hansi Flick who has brought a new style to their play which has benefitted the squad who are thriving in his system. He has also involved a lot of La Masia talent in the squad to bring back the Barcelona DNA. It seems to have brought a positive environment between the fans, players, and staff.

So far everything is going their way with the team occupying the top spot with 24 points from the starting nine games maintaining a three-point lead over Real Madrid. Meanwhile, Sevilla after a poor start to the new season has finally picked up the pace in the last few games pulling some impressive results on the road.

The recent upturn of form has seen them move to the 12th position picking 12 points after nine games. However, their biggest problem has been their inability to remain consistent. Hopefully, Garcia Pimienta’s team will start to maintain their recent run of good runs.

Players to Watch

Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona)

Blaugrana will be relieved to see their talisman fit for this clash after getting a scare in the international break where he suffered an injury. Lewandowski who is having a fine season with the team has already scored ten goals from nine matches while also laying on another two assists. This season, he is back to his lethal form where he is converting all the chances into goals through his clinical finishing. He is currently leading the goalscoring charts in the league with ten goals. 

Dodi Lukebakio (⁠Sevilla)

The Belgium international has been one of the most consistent performers in the team. He has displayed some wonderful performances this season with the recent one against Real Betis. There he netted the only goal of the game to hand the three points to the team.

Lukebakio is currently leading the goalscoring charts for the team by three goals and has looked like the only player who could win them matches with his brilliance.
