Bar\u00e7a are back in La Liga and hope to do so with a win against Sevilla. Victory could be key ahead of the clashes against Bayern and Real Madrid<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

FC Barcelona return to the Estadi Olimpic Llu\u00eds Companys this Sunday to face Sevilla<\/a>, on the tenth day of LaLiga 2024\/25. The ball will start rolling from 9:00 p.m. and will face Hansi Flick<\/strong>‘s team against one of their favorite ‘victims’ of recent years.<\/p>

The cul\u00e9 team will seek to start the third stage of the season with a new victory in the local championship<\/strong> after having started the international break with a thrashing of Alav\u00e9s. A victory that, in addition, would allow them to start on the right foot a key week for the cul\u00e9s, whose next two games face them against Bayern and Real Madrid.<\/p>

A priori, the duel in Montju\u00efc is presented as an ‘accessible’ one for the Blaugranas<\/strong>. Sevilla are far from being the same as in years past and are in a slump, recording just three wins in their first nine La Liga games.<\/p>

In addition, the Sevillian team has not won away from home in the league so far, having accumulated three draws and two defeats when they have played away from the S\u00e1nchez-Pizju\u00e1n.<\/p>

Will Hansi Flick risk Lamine Yamal?<\/h3>

Lamine Yamal is the big question mark in the Bar\u00e7a starting eleven in the duel against Garc\u00eda Pimienta’s men<\/strong>. The Catalan star was forced to leave the Spanish training camp due to muscle strain, and although any type of injury has already been ruled out, everything points to Hansi Flick opting to leave him on the bench from the start so as not to risk him in the face of the transcendental duels that await the Catalans.<\/p>

However, it is not all worrying news for Bar\u00e7a, as the German coach is expected to have Gavi, Ferm\u00edn L\u00f3pez and Dani Olmo back in his squad<\/strong> after they recovered from their injuries. Despite this, they are scheduled to play in the second half, playing the final minutes of the match to assess their feelings and reduce the risk of a relapse.<\/p>

In this way, Flick would take the field with the best he has at his disposal, with I\u00f1aki Pe\u00f1a in goal accompanied by the defensive quartet preferred by the Bar\u00e7a coach this season. Eric Garc\u00eda would return to the midfield and accompany Pedri and Marc Casad\u00f3, while Raphinha would take Lamine’s place on the right wing<\/strong> and Pau V\u00edctor would return to the starting line-up on the left, with Lewandowski as the point man in attack.<\/p>

Bar\u00e7a aim to extend their winning streak against Sevilla<\/h3>

Despite Sevilla winning two of their last three matches before the break, the history between the two clubs leaves Bar\u00e7a as the clear favourite. In the last 5 meetings between the two teams, the Catalans have achieved 5 victories<\/strong>. In addition, the Sevillians have not known what it is like to win in Barcelona since 2002, so everything points to the Blaugranas extending their winning streak against the Andalusians.<\/p>

Thus, the Barcelona team hopes to return to LaLiga with a victory against one of its favourite ‘victims’ of recent years<\/strong>, taking advantage of the opportunity to add three points in a match that will kick off a crucial week for the team in terms of the rest of the season and which will allow it to face the week with an important morale boost if it achieves victory and sends a strong warning to Bayern and Real Madrid.<\/p>
