La Liga pace-setters Barcelona are back at the Spotify Camp Nou, ready to host Sevilla on Sunday afternoon, as they look to secure revenge against the side that handed them their first domestic defeat of the term.
Sevilla categorically dismantled Barcelona 4–1 in the reverse fixture at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán, exposing the defensive flaws Hansi Flick’s side has failed to fully solve this season. Still, Barcelona are a different beast at home and regardless of the fatigue that’s become apparent in recent weeks, they’re a much stronger team than they were during that October meeting.
The Catalans battled to a 1–1 draw away against Newcastle United last time out in the Champions League. Flick’s men were second best on the night but still managed a favorable result that has them in pole position to advance to the quarterfinals.
With the return leg against Newcastle on Wednesday looming large, Flick is expected to heavily rotate his side against Sevilla, who have just two wins in La Liga since the turn of the year.
A rotated Barça defeated Athletic Club last weekend to maintain a four-point gap over Real Madrid in the title race. The same is required a week later, as a slip-up against Sevilla could prove tremendously costly.
