Sevilla 1-3 Barcelona result, stats and report

A goalless draw at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán tells you everything about where both clubs are right now. Alaves had the ball, the shots, and a penalty. They scored none of it.

Raphinha scored three second-half goals to hand Barcelona a commanding 3-0 victory over Aston Villa at Camp Nou, with Villa's night summed up by three yellow cards and a single shot on target.

Sevilla came to Getafe and left with three goals and three points. Getafe had the ball, had the shots, and still managed to make an absolute mess of it.

Barcelona arrive at this one in blistering scoring form and with a point to prove after their Real Madrid defeat. Celta Vigo will make it ugly if they can. That is the game.

Julián Alvarez has apologised for trying to force a move to Barcelona last summer, but only after scoring again. He now faces the Catalan club in a Liga title decider at the Metropolitano, with Atlético fans still withholding full forgiveness.

Manchester United are scouting Barcelona outcast Alejandro Balde to fix a defence that has leaked nine goals in three games, but conflicting reports on Lisandro Martinez's future and JJ Gabriel's Real Madrid move suggest a club reacting to crisis rather than executing a plan.

Lamine Yamal's seventh-minute strike against Aston Villa took him to 14 Champions League goals as a teenager, overtaking Kylian Mbappe's long-standing record just days after finishing third behind Mbappe in the Ballon d'Or. Raphinha's double sealed a 3-0 win over a previously unbeaten Villa side.
