Camp Nou, Barcelona Capacity: 98,787 Click here for more info about the Stadium Google Street View of the Stadium **************** Match Background It won’t be easy for Barca to come back from the 3-1 defeat against Seville, but a quick look at the stats show that 25 of the results between the two at the Nou Camp in the league would be enough to give Guardiola’s men their 1st title of the season 25 of the 65 results between the two at the Nou Camp would be enough to overcome the 3-1 defeat last Saturday, whilst 10 would force extra time. Never come back from behind before Barca have had to come from behind on three occasions in the Super Cup and the bad news is that they have yet to achieve success. In 1988 they lost 2-1 against Mallorca in the first leg, in 1993 they went down 3-1 at the Bernabeu, the same result they suffered against Atletico Madrid in 1985. **************** Previous Meetings First Leg Result Sevilla FC 3-1 FC Barcelona Sat 08/05/10 | PRD |Sevilla 2 - 3 Barcelona Sat 16/01/10 | PRD | Barcelona 4 - 0 Sevilla Wed 13/01/10 | CDR | Sevilla 0 - 1 Barcelona ,Tue 05/01/10 | CDR | Barcelona 1 - 2 Sevilla Wed 22/04/09 | PRD | Barcelona 4 - 0 Sevilla ,,Sat 29/11/08 | PRD | Sevilla 0 - 3 Barcelona Sat 09/02/08 | PRD | Sevilla 1 - 1 Barcelona ,Tue 15/01/08 | CDR | Barcelona 0 - 0 Sevilla Wed 09/01/08 | CDR | Sevilla 1 - 1 Barcelona Sat 22/09/07 | PRD | Barcelona 2 - 1 Sevilla **************** As Always, please right Click on the image and click on View Image to view the full-size images.

Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 First Leg Result Sevilla FC 1-3 FC Barcelona I Wish
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 I didn't watch the match, the result has not really sunk in yet... I apologise, I asked a Mod to change it for me...
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 Honestly, I don't really wanna see the guys push hard to win this one. If Barça win, cool, but it's just a preseason game. Who am I kidding though, it's just not in them to take it easy. All I really want to see is Villa in the shirt.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 I'd like them to win the game and play well in front of the home crowd, even if we don't get the Copa on accumulation. We have depth problems, but Alves --------- Pique ----------- Puyol ------------ Abidal ------------------------ Busquets -------------- Xavi ----------------- Iniesta Messi ------------------- Ibra ------------------- Villa is a pretty damn tasty lineup.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 I'd take 5-0 at home please that'll work just fine.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 [LINEUP-4-3-3]Villa, Ibrahimovič, Messi, Keita, Busquets, Iniesta, Abidal, Milito, Puyol, Alves, Pinto [/LINEUP-4-3-3] This is my guess of the starting lineup.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 Xavi and Pique out because of injuries?
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 Not because of injuries but because of their fitness levels. Sergio and Villa are in great form and Xavi and Piqué are the most tired/unfit out of the 7 who travelled to Mexico.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 Got it.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 Worth pointing-out that Sevilla might field a weaker-side because of their huge match against Braga on Tuesday.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 No kidding, they have to come up big in that match or it's bye bye CL. They may as well suit up 11 kids and park them in the box.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 Did they play most of their first-team against Braga midweek?
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 1 Andrés Palop (G) 14 Julien Escudé (D) 5 Fernando Navarro (D) 20 Mouhamadou Dabo (D) 2 Federico Julian Fazio (D) 8 Didier Zokora (M) 11 Renato (M) 7 Jesús Navas (M) 16 Trinidad Diego Capel (M) 12 Frederic Kanouté (F) 10 Luis Fabiano (F) Sure looks like it.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 It would be if we could take advantage of this situation, start our strongest possible 11 and just go at them. It would be the perfect start to the season. Nothing beats a good remuntada for team morale.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 why would Pedro bench and Villa be shunted out to the left just to accomodate the underachieving Zlatan? IMO, until further notice, first-choice frontline should be MVP
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 Sevilla indeed played a full strength team in Portugal, I saw the highlights. As for us, is there any indication that Iniesta is ready to go? If he is, then I feel much more relaxed.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 Where can we watch this from the UK ???
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 I use this website :http://goalzz.com/main.aspx?region=-1&area=0 Just click "details" , and hope you have one of the channel's. It's not ALL channels but some of them. Btw its mostly european channel's.
Re: Pre/During/Post Match Thread | Supercopa de España 2L | FC Barcelona v Sevilla FC | 21 Aug 2010 When will they start showing something on GolTv... so anxious for the "official" start to the season! Guess it's streaming for now. Can we do it... la remuntada? I sure hope so. Btw... if anyone's bored till the match rolleyes, I've got some shots up from May on the site.
