Injury Woes Mount for Barcelona Ahead of Sevilla Clash
5 Oct
Summary
- Barcelona suffer 2-1 home defeat to PSG in Champions League
- Sevilla unbeaten in 5 La Liga games under new boss Almeyda
- Lewandowski set to return to Barcelona's starting lineup
As of October 5th, 2025, Barcelona are set to face Sevilla in a crucial La Liga match. The defending Spanish champions are coming off a 2-1 home defeat to holders PSG in the Champions League earlier this week, ending their unbeaten start to the campaign.
However, Barcelona still hold a one-point lead over rivals Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga table. Sevilla, on the other hand, have made a solid start to the season under new manager Matias Almeyda, remaining unbeaten in their last 5 league games.
Barcelona will be hoping to have star striker Robert Lewandowski back in the starting lineup for this match, after he made a cameo appearance off the bench against PSG. The Catalan club are still missing several key players through injury, including Gavi and Marc-Andre ter Stegen.
Sevilla are expected to field a similar lineup to the one that secured a late 1-0 win at Rayo Vallecano in their previous outing. Isaac Romero is set to lead the home side's attack, with Akor Adams providing an option off the bench.
This clash between two of La Liga's top teams promises to be an intriguing encounter, with both sides looking to maintain their strong starts to the season.
