Barcelona will host Sevilla on Friday for the eighth La Liga matchday eight fixture at the Lluis Companys stadium in Montjuic. The match will be played at 21.00 CET in Barcelona, Spain.
Spanish manager Xavi Hernandez gave a pre-match press conference ahead of Friday's game and said it will not be an easy match despite the Andalusian side's poor start to the season.
"We play at home against the Europa League champions. They are a tough, strong opponent. We want to get back to our winning ways," he told reporters.
"We need to be more focused on defence. When analysing Mallorca's game, it is not because of their 5-man defence, the attacking performance was good. It was the defensive issue that was lacking. It's something for everyone, not the goalkeeper or the centre-back."
The Catalan giants announced their 20-man squad list to face Sevilla in La Liga.
