On Wednesday, Barcelona failed to score in the first half of the match with Betis, but in the second half the Catalans could not be held by anyone. The Blue Garnet scored three goals, two against the enemy and one against their own. This success has already helped to get 50 points, while the lead by five points may be reduced by the beginning of today’s confrontation with Sevilla. It is impossible not to remember that in four of the five successful seasons when Barca won La Liga, at this stage they scored 50+ points. According to Xavi, they are “on the right track” to title success. It is impossible not to note the performance of the defense, which conceded just one goal at the Camp Nou in nine games, while in the last four matches of La Liga the leaders won by one goal. Dembele, who has a muscle injury, will not be able to play today.
After languishing in the relegation zone for much of the season, Sevilla have managed to climb into the middle of the table with three wins in their last four La Liga matches. After 19 matches the guests have a margin of two points to 19th place, with a huge density of opponents in this part of the standings, which is preparing a serious intrigue in the battle for survival at the end of the tournament. All this puts any team on the brink of the relegation zone, while it cannot be ignored that the Nervions have not won against Barcelona since October 2015, but the last success at the Camp Nou dates back to 2002. After 19 rounds Jorge Sampaoli’s wards have five victories and six draws, which corresponds to 21 points and 13th position. In the last duel the Red-Whites beat Elche (3:0). Telles, Papu Gomez, Markao, Dmitrovich and Corona, who has a leg injury, will not be able to help the team today. More prediction for today games football can be obtained from the link provided.
