Barcelona take on the visitors Sevilla in the round 20 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Sunday, February 5th at Camp Nou (Barcelona).
Barcelona were finally able to take the trophy. Yes, it's just the Super Cup, the lowest rated prize available. And earlier, "more than a club" would not particularly notice something like that. But this is the first title after a long pause, since the departure of Lionel Messi. And the first for Xavi in a new role in Catalonia - as a coach. But this temporade began with the fact that we again lost the dispute for 2nd place in the Champions League group, and they will play in the playoffs only in the Europa League (by the way, the powerful Manchester United will be the first opponent there). Now there is a chance to take the 1st place in LaLiga. Not everything worked out there either, and in the fall, among other things, there was a defeat in El Clasico. But Real often allow misfires, and back in November, and already in January, the Barca managed not only to reach the 1st place, but also broke away from Los Blancos. At the moment, after the 1st half of the season, the distance has grown to 5 points. And at the same time, after a pause, the Catalans made only 1 misfire, with Espanyol. They didn't win against Betis either, but they passed it in the 1st round of the Super Cup in a penalty shootout.

Sevilla meets February in 13th place, and is ahead of Cadiz, which is in the 18th, “departing” position, by only 2 points. But at the same time, even such a frankly disastrous situation can already be called noticeable progress. After all, the new season of "White Andalusia", a regular in the top 4 of LaLiga, started as a failure. And it didn’t turn out so sharply to add after Lopetegui was fired, returning Sampaoli, who once showed himself well here, to the coaching post. However, it is still possible to save this pace, for example, through the Europa League, where they were transferred following the results of the group stage in the Champions League, where again there was 3rd place. Yes, and in LaLiga they won three times in 4 extreme rounds - before that there were only 2 wins in all matches. On the other hand, one should not overestimate the progress of "White Andalusia", which in the cup in the quarterfinals lost to a strong, but by no means stellar, Osasuna.
Barcelona won both matches last calendar year. Moreover, Sevilla has only 1 win in 11 head-to-head matches, and then after this success in the cup they lost in the “response” and were relegated. Bookmakers are confident in the victory of Barcelona. But it is worth remembering that she is now winning pragmatically, largely due to reliable defense. So we should use the bet on "total under 3.0 goals".
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
