Lineup Changes and Confirmed Team News
Sevilla’s selection confirms Sanganté is fit to start, correcting the earlier expectation that he would miss out. García Plaza also starts Ure ahead of Isaac Romero; Lucas Stassin and Rubén Vargas are absent from the matchday squad.
Barcelona are without Joan García, who has a knee problem. Livaković starts rather than Szczęsny, while Christensen and Cancelo are selected in defence. Raphinha wears the captain’s armband, with Gordon and Yamal alongside him in attack.
Yamal starts on the right of Barcelona’s front line, where his left foot gives him the option to cut inside. Raphinha’s central movement and Gordon’s runs provide different routes into Sevilla’s penalty area.
