Barcelona vs Sevilla Team News

Now on the brink of claiming a fourth cup title on the spin and only one win away from being crowned champions in La Liga, Barcelona are closing in on a domestic double, dominating the summit of the top flight with a 12 points breakaway off Atletico Madrid behind in 2nd so their champions title is just a matter of days.

Just to remind you that it will be the fourth Copa del Rey final for the Catalans in as many years - and potentially a fifth in seven years - with the Blaugrana having overcome Athletic Bilbao (3-1 in 2015) and Sevilla (2-0 after et in 2016) before repeating the feat they last achieved in the space of 1951-1953 by beating Alaves 3-1 last year.

Ernesto Valverde's first year in charge at the Catalan club could be deemed fairly successful should his side upset the Andalusian club on Saturday night, to deny them any silverware this season, as Sevilla fell to Bayern Munich in their quarter-final tie in this year's Champions League and are now seven games without a victory in all competitions.

On the road to the upcoming final at Wanda Metropolitano Barcelona had gone past Murcia (8-0 on agg.), Celta Vigo (6-1 on agg.), Espanyol (2-1 on agg.) and Valencia in a 3-0 winning passage resulting in this final against Sevilla.

The Andalusians, meanwhile, had to contend with Cartanega (7-0), Cadiz (4-1), Atletico Madrid (5-2) and Leganes (3-1 on agg.), who eliminated Real Madrid from the quarter-finals back in January. It's fair to say that their emergence into the final is no coincidence and Barcelona will surely be wary of the opponents' hammering of Atleti and the famous elimination of Manchester United in the CL.

Teams' Potential Starting Lineups:

Barcelona (4-4-2): Cillessen; Alba, Umtiti, Pique, Roberto; Iniesta, Busquets, Rakitic, Coutinho; Messi, Suarez.

Sevilla (4-2-3-1): Soria; Escudero, Lenglet, Mercado, Navas; N'Zonzi, Banega; Nolito, Vazquez, Sarabia; Muriel.

Injured or Suspended Players:
