League leaders Barcelona return to domestic action on Sunday afternoon when they welcome Sevilla to Camp Nou in a crucial La Liga encounter, Soccernet.ng reports.
Follow the Barcelona vs Sevilla match here:
Hansi Flick’s side sit comfortably at the top of the table, holding a four-point advantage over fierce rivals Real Madrid as the title race begins to intensify.
Barcelona were in European action earlier in the week, battling to a 1–1 draw against Newcastle United in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League round-of-16 tie.
Despite their lacklustre performance, the outcome puts Blaugrana in a strong position to win the return leg at home.
Standing in their way this weekend are a determined Sevilla side hoping to pull further clear of the relegation battle.
Currently sitting 14th in the table, Matías Almeyda’s men arrive on the back of a steady run of form that has seen them lose just once in their last eight league matches.
Despite their resilience, history heavily favours the hosts. Sevilla have struggled badly on this ground, failing to win a La Liga match at Camp Nou since 2002.
However, the visitors did shock Barcelona earlier this season with a stunning 4–1 victory in the reverse fixture.
With Barcelona chasing another important step toward the title and Sevilla eager to continue their climb away from danger, this clash promises plenty of drama.
