Sevilla and Barcelona meet in an intriguing top-of-the-table tie between Barcelona in first and Sevilla in fourth.
Sevilla have started well with four wins, one draw and one loss. A lot of their good start is down to having a great defence rather than attack, with the joint best defensive record in the league, and they come to this game on the back of two clean sheets.
