Barcelona vs Sevilla Match Preview

It will be a matter of revenge for the Catalans at the Camp Nou, when FC Barcelona clash against Sevilla in La Liga on Saturday. Barcelona went down against Sevilla controversially in their home at the beginning of the year while playing in the Copa del Rey; thus, even a narrow win in the return leg during midweek was not enough to keep them in the competition.

Barcelona - Another game against Sevilla

FC Barcelona playing Sevilla in the Copa del Rey

Barcelona’s dream of clinching the treble for the second time in two consecutive years is now over, and Coach Pep Guardiola himself feels how painful this is. His side however has the option of pouring their anger on their opponents from Andalusia this weekend, even if this will not change the past.

This will be the third time this year that both sides will meet, and surely by now, Barca have a clear idea of Sevilla’s style of play.

This match will also be very important for Barcelona’s position in the league table. The league leaders currently seat at the top of the standings two points ahead of rivals Real Madrid with 43 points, but this gap is yet to give the Catalans’ spirit a break.

In a way, one could think that fury towards their exit from the Spanish Cup could drive Barcelona to triumph over Sevilla, but in another way, one could also believe that nervousness and regret could cause the Blaugrana to miss the 3 points, in what would be the second winless encounter in three league matches.

Now, one question which arises is “Would Barcelona be right to fear Sevilla on Saturday evening?”

Perchance, this is no difficult question to answer from the point of view of a Barca fan, who might certainly explain that fear helps in no manner; but on the other hand, panicking against Sevilla could be understandable – considering the numerous qualities of the fifth-placed team in the league.

Sevilla - The dangerous side

Sevilla are indeed a side that needs to be taking very seriously this season, for not even the remarkable expertise, luck, and army of Coach Pep Guardiola were able to overcome them.

Moreover, Sevilla had the power to keep giants Real Madrid under their control on the 4th of October 2009, when they defeated Los Blancos 2-1 at home. They are just a single point below fourth-placed team Deportivo La Coruna, having gathered 30 points in 17 matches – following 9 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses.

Nonetheless, such an ordinary record doesn’t keep them from fighting as experts when playing against other big Spanish clubs, and they have showed it through great achievements against Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Barcelona vs Sevilla: Quick Analysis

Well, this weekend’s game concerns them and Barcelona, so let’s look at the head-to-head between both teams this season:

13-01-2010: Sevilla 0-1 Barcelona
05-01-2010: Barcelona 1- 2 Sevilla

It is true that looking at these facts which are related to matches that took place this year, you can see that both sides are almost equally good. One must nevertheless admit that Sevilla were winners at the Camp Nou on January 5 thanks to a wrong penalty which should not have been given to them.

In any case, this will not be an excuse for Barcelona this weekend, for they will have nothing in mind but to succeed no matter what happens; after all, they will have no choice but to accept whatever the referee decides in the clash.
