Sports Mole looks at how Barcelona could line up in Sunday's La Liga contest with Sevilla.

Barcelona boss Xavi could name an unchanged side for Sunday's La Liga contest with Sevilla.

The Catalan outfit will again be missing Ousmane Dembele due to a thigh problem, but the team did not pick up any fresh fitness problems in their 2-1 victory over Real Betis on Wednesday.

As a result, it would not be a surprise to see Xavi select the same XI that took to the field last time out.

Robert Lewandowski was back in the team and back on the scoresheet against Real Betis, with the Poland international serving a three-game suspension in Spain's top flight.

The experienced striker will again lead the line for Barcelona, and he is expected to be joined in the final third of the field by Gavi and Raphinha.

Xavi has plenty of options at the back, with Sergi Roberto, Marcos Alonso, Jordi Alba and Eric Garcia all hoping to be handed starting roles.

However, Alejandro Balde should keep hold of his starting role at left-back, with Jules Kounde likely to feature as the right-back against his former club.

Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres are among the attacking options, while Franck Kessie is pushing for a midfield spot, but it should again be Pedri, Sergio Busquets and Frenkie de Jong in the middle of the park.

Barcelona possible starting lineup: Ter Stegen; Kounde, Araujo, Christensen, Balde; Pedri, Busquets, De Jong; Raphinha, Lewandowski, Gavi
