Sevilla have confirmed a 25-player squad for the game. Lucas Stassin is unavailable through injury and Rubén Vargas remains out, but defender Arouna Sangante has returned to the matchday group. The club has also included academy player Nico Guillén.

Barcelona have ruled out goalkeeper Joan García because of a minor knee problem sustained against Racing Santander. Wojciech Szczęsny and Dominik Livaković are both in Hansi Flick’s travelling squad, but the official starting goalkeeper and full XI should not be assumed before the teams are announced.

Lamine Yamal, Raphinha, Pedri and Gabriel Jesus are among Barcelona’s named players. For Sevilla, Miguel Sierra and Isaac Romero are included in the squad after featuring against Deportivo; their starting roles are not yet confirmed. Official lineups will establish the formations and substitutes before kick-off.

Recent form: Sevilla’s clean sheets and Barcelona’s goals

Sevilla beat Valencia 1–0 on 11 September, with Juan Iglesias scoring the winner, then won 1–0 at Deportivo on 16 September through Miguel Sierra. Those results followed a draw at Espanyol and have left García Plaza’s side on 13 points from six matches.

Barcelona’s latest league game was a 7–2 win over Racing Santander, with Raphinha scoring a hat-trick. They also beat Levante 4–2 in their previous league outing. The visitors have taken all 18 available points after six rounds, scoring 28 goals and conceding six; Sevilla have scored nine and conceded six.

These are pre-match figures from 19 September, not a continuously updated league table. The contrast is clear enough without inventing a forecast: Sevilla have been difficult to break down in their last two games, while Barcelona’s attack has produced goals in volume.

Match analysis, predictions and live score

The main question is whether Sevilla can limit the chances Barcelona have been creating. Their successive clean sheets offer one reference point; Barcelona’s 28 goals in six games offer another. Joan García’s absence also changes Barcelona’s goalkeeping options, although the starting XI will settle the selection question.

Fans making their own Sevilla vs Barcelona predictions can weigh recent form, the confirmed team sheets and the previous meetings before choosing a market.
