On Tuesday night, Sevilla and Barcelona meet at the Sanchez Pizjuan, in a game that could have big implications in the race for the title and Champions League qualification in La Liga.

SEVILLA

The Andalusians look to be the closest rivals to league leaders Real Madrid at the top of the table. Julen Lopetegui’s team are hot on the heels of Los Blancos, six points behind, but having played a game fewer than Carlo Ancelotti’s team.

A three-game winning run in La Liga, including a 2-1 win over reigning champions Atletico Madrid in their last league game has certainly aided their title challenge.

Los Rojiblancos home form has also been a factor in staying in touch with the men from Madrid. Sevilla are currently on a ten-match undefeated run at the Sanchez Pizjuan in La Liga, claiming nine wins in the run.

BARCELONA

Things look like they are starting to move in the right direction under club legend Xavi. However, the club’s former midfielder still has plenty of work to do to turn things around completely at the Catalan giants.

A 3-2 home defeat of Elche last time out means that the Blaugrana have won three of their last five matches in the Spanish top-flight. The win moved the visitors to within three points of the league’s top-four.

Barcelona have found away wins hard to come by of late in the Spanish top-flight, as they have won just once in their previous seven outings on their travels in La Liga.
