Sevilla Stuns Barcelona in Thrilling La Liga Clash
5 Oct
Summary
- Sevilla endured rocky start but now in fine form
- Barcelona suffered midweek European setback before this match
- Sevilla's Akor Adams scored late winner in previous game
On Sunday, October 5th, 2025, Sevilla will host Barcelona in a crucial La Liga match. The Andalusian outfit has endured a rocky start to the campaign, suffering consecutive defeats to Athletic Bilbao and Getafe. However, they have since steadied the ship, winning three of their last five league outings and losing just once in that stretch.
Recent victories over Girona, Alavés, and Rayo Vallecano have propelled Sevilla up the standings. Their most recent triumph came against Rayo, where Akor Adams delivered the decisive blow late in the game to secure a 1-0 win. The Catalan giants, on the other hand, faced a stern test on Wednesday night, falling 2-1 at home to a depleted Paris Saint-Germain side in the Champions League.
Domestically, though, Barcelona remain in fine form. With 19 points from their opening seven league fixtures, they sit at the summit of La Liga, narrowly ahead of arch-rivals Real Madrid. Last weekend, they edged past Real Sociedad 2-1 to maintain their perfect home record, with their only blemish so far coming in a draw away at Rayo Vallecano before the September international break.
This Sunday's clash promises to be a thrilling encounter as Sevilla look to continue their resurgence and Barcelona aim to bounce back from their European setback.
