Sergio Ramos' return to Sevilla is certainly very good for motivating young players. Not only is he a motivator but he also still has the energy to help Sevilla improve their position in the standings. But it looks like Ramos will be very difficult to rely on against Barcelona, he is starting to age and is certainly no longer able to play at a high tempo. I present El Barca will be able to pick three points in that match.
We all know Ramos is a player with experience, but José Luis Mendilibar doesn't seem to be giving him much playing time so far. Mendilibar didn't play Ramos when Sevilla beat Almeria 5-1 a few days ago, but today Ramos looks like he will get a place in the main squad because it can help Sevilla defend better.
Barcelona of course already knows what they have to do for this match after their failure to get full points in the match against Mallorca. Barcelona, which is playing at home, will certainly be very motivated to win 3 points instead of letting Sevilla steal points, but we never know what the final result will be even if Barcelona is the favorite to win it. The match will be difficult for both teams, at least that is what we can hope for.
