We have reached the final round of matches in the 2023/24 La Liga season. There is little to decide in terms of Europe and relegation but teams will want to finish as high as possible in the table.
The game between Sevilla and Barcelona will be played on the 26th of May at the Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán. The hosts begin the weekend in 13th place on 41 points while the visitors are in 2nd place on 82 points.
Sevilla come into the match having lost 2-0 at Athletic Club last week in La Liga. The hosts took the lead in the 17th minute and doubled their advantage 2 minutes later. Sevilla could not break down the opposition defence in the time that remained.
The defeat at Athletic Club means Sevilla have lost each of their last 3 fixtures in La Liga. The additional defeats have come away to Villarreal and at home against Cadiz, the latter of which was a disappointing loss to at team that has been relegated.
Trends show Sevilla have won only 1 of their last 5 La Liga games. However, they have won 4 of their last 6 at home, including good wins over Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad. There have been over 2.5 goals in 4 of Sevilla’s 5 most recent La Liga matches on home soil.
Barcelona make the trip to the Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán on the back of a 3-0 home victory over Rayo Vallecano last week in La Liga.
It took just 3 minutes for Barcelona to take the lead but they were forced to wait until the 72nd minute for their second goal. Barcelona added a third goal 3 minutes later to seal the win.
The victory over Rayo Vallecano means Barcelona have won each of their last 3 fixtures, all of which were played in La Liga. The additional victories came over Real Sociedad at home and Almeria away.
The stats show Barcelona have a good record of 32 undefeated games in their last 37 encounters in La Liga.
They are undefeated in 16 of their 18 most recent away league games and have seen over 2.5 goals scored in 3 of their last 5 matches on the road. Barcelona are undefeated against Sevilla in their last 16 league games.
Team news and Sevilla have several players in the treatment room, including Suso, Erik Lamela, Isaac Romero, Oliver Torres, Nemanja Gudelj, and Djibril Sow.
Barcelona travel without injured midfielder Frenkie De Jong but he is the only player unavailable for the visitors.
It is often difficult to predict what will happen in final games of the season when there is nothing major riding on the match for either team.
However, our prediction for this match is over 2.5 goals and with Barcelona having such a strong recent record against Sevilla, we expect the visitors to finish the season with a win.
