If there was ever a better time for a team to face Barcelona, it would be now. Lionel Messi will be sidelined until sometime in November and the Catalan club have managed just 2 wins in their last 5 away matches. Saying that, it is still Barcelona. They have won 23 of their last 27 matches in La Liga. And they are certainly not short of attacking options with Luis Suárez and Neymar more than up to the task of leading the attack. Sevilla's last win against Barcelona came in the Super Cup in 2010. In that time, Barcelona have won 9 of their last 12 games against Sevilla. Sevilla have won just 1 of their last 6 La Liga matches.
Sevilla have seen over 2.5 goals in 11 of their last 13 matches at home in all competitions. The last 7 meetings between these teams has seen 39 goals. With or without Lionel Messi, there should be a lot of goals this afternoon!
The next two months will be Luis Suárez' opportunity to shine in La Liga as he’ll be the focal point of Barcelona’s attack. And while it took him a while to get going when he first made the move from Liverpool, Suárez has been directly involved in 28 goals in his 24 La Liga appearances in 2015.
