Sevilla vs FC Barcelona: Probable lineups for the match - LaLiga 2024-25

Sevilla and FC Barcelona face off this Sunday, February 9, 2025, in matchday 23 of LaLiga EA Sports 2024-2025. The azulgrana team is presented with a golden opportunity to close the gap in the standings after the Madrid derby, so it is expected that Hansi Flick will put 'all the meat on the grill' in Nervión.

Next, we review the probable starting formation, the substitutes bench, and the injured and suspended players of Hansi Flick's Barcelona.

After making several rotations against Valencia in the Copa del Rey, the German would bet again on his 'first team'. Ronald Araujo would return to the center of defense alongside Pau Cubarsí, while Marc Casadó and Gavi would do the same in midfield, although the presence of Dani Olmo is not ruled out. Finally, Robert Lewandowski will return to the center of the attack. Ter Stegen, Christensen, and Marc Bernal are out due to injury.

Possible lineup of FC Barcelona against Sevilla

• Starting XI: (25, P) Szczesny; (23) Koundé, (2) Pau Cubarsí, (4) Araujo, (3) Balde; (17) Casadó, (8) Pedri, (6) Gavi; (19) Lamine Yamal, (11) Raphinha, (9) Lewandowski.
• Bench:  (13, P) Iñaki Peña; (5) Íñigo Martínez; (7) Ferran Torres; (10) Ansu Fati; (14) Pablo Torre; (16) Fermín López; (18) Pau Víctor; (20) Dani Olmo; (21) Frenkie De Jong; (24) Eric García; (31, P) Kochen; (32) Héctor Fort; (35) Gerard Martín.
• Injured: (1) Ter Stegen; (28) Marc Bernal; (15) Andreas Christensen.
• Suspended: None.

Barça arrives at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán in impeccable form. The culés remain unbeaten in 2025 and return to LaLiga after crushing Valencia at Mestalla to secure their place in the Copa semifinals (0-5). After the derby between Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid, the Catalans will seek three points that will allow them to climb the standings and get closer to the league title once again.

On the other side will be a Sevilla that has only managed 3 wins in the last 10 matches and hopes to surprise their fans to break a drought of nearly 10 years without defeating the azulgranas in LaLiga.
