- Barcelona have won 2 of their last 3 trips to Sevilla and have won each of their two away games so far in LaLiga 2026/2027.
- Barcelona have scored 5.00 goals per away match on average away from home in LaLiga 2026/2027 (5.00 goals per 90 min).
- Sevilla have won three, drawn one and lost one of their five games this season, but they enter this game off the back of a 1-0 home win over Valencia.
Barcelona to play their part in a high-scoring game
FC Barcelona are the heavy favourites to win Saturday's game at 1.4, while Sevilla are priced at 8.75 and the draw is at 5.41 for the match at Estadio R. Sanchez Pizjuan in Spain.
There are certainly reasons to believe that Barça are worthy favourites in this fixture, but Sevilla are a decent side in their own right and the hosts will be a little more comfortable in the knowledge that Barça need to play their best to secure the win.
Barça are a side with several attacking solutions in the final third, but Brazilian ace Raphinha has been the headline act in the early exchanges, having scored six times in his four LaLiga 2026/2027 matches so far. He should be a strong contender to get on the scoresheet on Saturday.
Sevilla can hit Barca on the break
Barça have won each of their last five matches and their ruthless form suggests that they mean business in the title race this season.
Hansi Flick's high line and high-tempo pressing game should prove a good test of Sevilla's build-up play, although the hosts will hope to get men behind the Barca line with their counter-pressing and verticality when in possession.
Luis Garcia's side have been pretty solid at home with two wins, no draws and a defeat from three attempts in Spain's top flight. That's not a fortress record but it's solid enough, while Sevilla have plenty of experience at playing in big games.
Stick with Barca in a good spot
Chidera Ejuke has scored one LaLiga goal this term in five games and is Sevilla's most likely marksman, although Miguel Angel Sierra has chipped in with two of his side's four goals in their last five matches.
Sevilla have won just three, drawn one and lost one of their first five LaLiga 2026/2027 matches, so they come into this on a decent run and currently sit fourth with ten points from five. Barcelona have a perfect record with a maximum 12 points from four.
Sevilla will attempt to counter-attack and try to make the game a race in transition, but Barça can open them up with pressing as they do so well. Barça to win and over 2.5 goals looks a solid bet as a result.
