Barcelona will face Sevilla at Camp Nou on Monday, April 4 at 12:30 am (IST) in the ongoing LaLiga season. Barcelona has made significant improvement under Xavi and now appears unstoppable, whereas Sevilla’s performance has slipped in recent months after a promising start to the season. For both teams, this is a critical match because the winner would finish second on the table until the next match day.
With 54 points, Barcelona is presently in fourth place on the table. In the 28 matches they’ve played so far this season, they’ve won 15, drawn 9, and lost four. Barcelona has improved dramatically under Xavi and now appears invincible. They have won their previous five league games in a row, with their most recent triumph coming at the Santiago Bernabéu last month, just before the international break, against league leaders Real Madrid.
Until recently, Barcelona appeared to be drowning in issues, but Xavi’s presence has functioned as a salve for the entire club. The famous midfielder has done an excellent job of steering the ship, and Barcelona has already put in some outstanding performances under his guidance. Of course, Barcelona’s 4-0 thumping of Real Madrid was easily the club’s best performance under Xavi, and the Catalans will be hoping to keep their winning streak going when they face Sevilla.
Sevilla, on the other hand, is now in second place with 57 points. In the 29 games they have played so far this season, they have won 15, drawn 12, and lost two.
In the meantime, Sevilla’s form has dipped in recent months after a strong start to the season. They have only managed to score seven points in their last five games, allowing Real to construct a nine-point gap between them and the second-placed team.
In their most recent league game, they were held to a goalless draw by Real Sociedad, and they will try to get back on track with this match.
