Sevilla-Barça: When and where to watch the La Liga match on TV
Hansi Flick's team heads into the match with the challenge of turning the page after the defeat to PSG.
BarcelonaBarça, who climbed to first place in La Liga last matchday, visit the Sánchez Pizjuán in Seville this Sunday without Lamine Yamal. In this match, they will reunite with Chilean Alexis Sánchez, who was a Barça striker for three seasons, from 2011/12 to 2013/14.
The team coached by German Hansi Flick arrives after suffering its first defeat of the season, in the Champions League against PSG (1-2), which will make them alert on a pitch that is no longer the Sevilla stronghold it once was and where the home side have yet to win this season. The name of Lamine Yamal, who suffered a recurrence of discomfort in his groin against the Parisian side and will be out for another two or three weeks, is on everyone's lips, as the Spanish national team wanted to call him up anyway. Flick will be without goalkeepers Ter Stegen and Joan Garcia, midfielders Gavi and Fermín, and striker Raphinha.
Thus, Roony Bardghji could be Lamine Yamal's replacement on the right wing, and Lewandowski could regain his starting position as number 9 instead of Ferran Torres. And in defense, the German coach is expected to change his center-back pairing again, with Araujo and Christensen coming in for Cubarsí and Eric Garcia.
