How Barcelona could line up against Sevilla

Sports Mole looks at how Barcelona could line up in Saturday's La Liga clash with Sevilla.

Barcelona will be looking to continue their impressive run of form in La Liga when they face Sevilla at Estadio Ramon on Saturday afternoon.

Ronald Koeman's side will enter this weekend's contest off the back of a 3-0 win over Elche, and they are now unbeaten in Spain's top flight since the start of December.

A total of 50 points from 24 matches has left the Catalan giants in third spot in the table, just five points behind leaders Atletico Madrid, although Diego Simeone's side still have a game in hand.

Barca will again be without the services of Sergi Roberto, Philippe Coutinho and Ansu Fati through injury, while Ronald Araujo is also unavailable despite making progress in his recovery from an ankle problem.

Koeman made a number of changes for Wednesday's clash with Elche, with the likes of Samuel Umtiti, Oscar Mingueza, Miralem Pjanic, Martin Braithwaite and Trincao handed spots in the XI.

There are expected to be alterations for this game, with Ousmane Dembele and Antoine Griezmann set to return to the front three alongside Lionel Messi, who scored a brace on Wednesday night.

Sergio Busquets should also return in the middle of the park, while Clement Lenglet and Sergino Dest are both expected to be back in the defence alongside Gerard Pique and Jordi Alba.

Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Frenkie de Jong and Pedri are also likely to retain their spots in the team.
