"Barcelona will be out to respond to their midweek Champions League setback when they resume La Liga duties with a visit to Sevilla at Estadio Ramon on Sunday afternoon. The Catalan champions currently lead the standings by a single point over rivals Real Madrid, while Sevilla's encouraging start has earned them 10 points from seven games, placing them ninth in the table."
"The hosts will again be without Alfon Gonzalez and Tanguy Nianzou through injury, while Joan Jordan and Adnan Januzaj are significant doubts. Alexis Sanchez, who represented Barcelona between 2011 and 2014, is set to start in attack at the age of 36. A three-man backline should be deployed once more, while Lucien Agoume - reportedly attracting interest from Manchester United and Arsenal - is in contention for a midfield role."
Barcelona travel to Sevilla at Estadio Ramon aiming to recover from a midweek Champions League defeat. Barcelona lead La Liga by a single point over Real Madrid.

Sevilla face injuries to Alfon Gonzalez and Tanguy Nianzou, with Joan Jordan and Adnan Januzaj doubtful, while Alexis Sanchez is set to start and Lucien Agoume is in contention.
