Barcelona - Sevilla Football prediction

Normally a two-legged affair – one at each stadium of the participants – thanks to a busy pre-season for Barcelona and the lack of spare dates, both teams have had to agree to the suggestion of the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF).


Sevilla can barely win against Barca. In the last 23 games against the Catalans, the Andalusians won only twice. Sevilla is in the Spanish Supercup for the fourth time after 2007, 2010 and 2016. Only at the first appearance, the Andalusians were able to get the trophy. In 2010 and 2016 lost in the Supercup each against Barcelona The game is played in the Grand Stade de Tangier of Morocco. the Supercup between champions and cup winners will also be held in Spain. As Barcelona made their national double last season, defeated Cup finalists Sevilla can compete in the Supercup. 

No one doubts the ability of FC Barcelona to score and we must not forget that one of Messi's favorite victims is Sevilla with a total of almost 30 goals since the first time they met in 2005. 

Sevilla coach, Pablo Machin, will go with an unfamiliar 3-4-3 system, he still has enough talent in his side to cause Barca problems. Though new, still has to correctly apply the systems he wants to implement and the style of play does not look very definite. Even so, it is expected that they will score at least one target, I like this team because they try from distance basically every time when they come closer to penalty box. 

About choice of corners is also easy to understand, between 6 and 13 corners is the most natural margin since more than 5 corners there are practically 99% of the games in a season and more than 13 is quite difficult to generate though.
