Barcelona eye victory against Sevilla at home in 2018/19 Copa del Rey Quarter-Final second leg
Kick-off : 9:30 PM (Local)
Venue : Camp Nou, Barcelona
Barcelona suffered a shocking 0-2 defeat at the hands of Sevilla in the first leg and will be eager for success.
Barcelona did well against Girona at the weekend and have maintained their first position in La Liga at the moment.
Barca know they will have to chalk out a clear cut strategy taking home advantage to go past a good side in Sevilla and they are of course capable of it.
Barcelona will have to score a couple of goals firstly without conceding and then have more goals to be comfortable.
On the other hand, Sevilla did pretty well in defeating Barcelona in the first leg and it should be easy to make it count and progress to the semi’s.
Sevilla will just need an away goal to make things tighter for Barca but they know Barca will be extremely tough at home and they need to be prepared for that.
Barcelona have done well against Sevilla in recent times and they will look to continue the good work.
