32'
EARLY SHOOTING!
It might well be the case that Barcelona's players have been told to get shots away early in order to test Bono in these challenging conditions at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.
31'
DEMBELE TRIES THE SHOT!
Barcelona were presented the ball inside the Sevilla half after a loose pass by the opposition, Dembele got the shot away quickly, but Bono makes the save low down!
30'
RATHER WET IN SEVILLE...

MIR TAKES IT ON!
Sevilla come forward down the left wing with the ball played to Mir, but the striker sends his left-footed strike wide of the post when he might have tested ter Stegen.
28'
27'
COMPETITIVE!
This has been an entertaining first half so far. Both teams have struggled to create much in the final third of the pitch, but the tempo and intensity of the game has been very high.
26'
DANGER ON THE WINGS!
Abde has more than shown his worth for Barcelona since breaking into the first team. Xavi was impressed with him when he watched the B team and fast-tracked him into the senior side.
24'
BIG OPPORTUNITY!
A win for Sevilla this evening would see them move within just three points of Real Madrid at the top of La Liga, although Carlo Ancelotti’s team will still have a game in-hand.

22'
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... NO!
Mir has the ball in the back of the net! He was released in behind the Barcelona defence and stuck an excellent finish past ter Stegen, but the flag was raised against the Sevilla forward!
21'
LOPETEGUI CONCERNED!
This is quite interesting - Sevilla have been doing their best to play out from the back, but Lopetegui has been out on the touchline asking his team to play more directly!
20'
STILL LEVEL IN SEVILLE...

DANGER FOR SEVILLA!
The corner kick was a bit messy from Barcelona, but Araujo got his head on it and Jutgla was close to directing an effort towards goal. He didn't make much of a connection.
18'
THE KIDS ARE ALRIGHT!
Xavi has placed his faith in Barcelona’s youth and they are repaying him. Indeed, the likes of Abe, Gavi, Jutgla and Nico have been the Catalans’ most consistent players this season.
17'
BARCA'S FORM!
Barcelona also come into this match on the back of a win, although their victory over Elche wasn’t so convincing with the Catalans only claiming three points thanks to Nico’s late winner.
15'
FIRST REAL CHANCE!
Alba played an excellent driven ball to the back post, de Jong's run was a good one and he got his head on the end of the delivery, but he could only direct it straight at Bono.
14'
THE HOME TEAM!
13'
JUTGLA SHOOTS!
The young Barcelona forward had Dembele on the overlap, which might have been the better option, but Jutgla takes on the shot himself and drags it well wide of the target.
12'
COSTLY YELLOW!
That booking means that Busquets will now be suspended for Barcelona's first match of 2022 against Real Mallorca on January 2. He will be a big miss for the Catalans.
11'
BOOKED!
Busquets is shown the first yellow card of the match for bringing down Ocampos. He can have no complaints about that.
