Barcelona ruled the roost in Spain last year winning La Liga by 14 points and thrashing Sevilla 5-0 in the Copa del Rey final. All that means it's Barcelona v Sevilla in the Spanish Super Cup final this season. Last year this was a two-legged final but this season it's just a one-off game that takes place in Tangiers in Morocco. Barcelona's pre-season has produced mixed results with a couple of defeats over 90 minutes in the International Champions Cup but with a much weakened side. A much stronger side is likely to be played in this match which isn't going to be good news of course for Sevilla.

=11.0ptOnly once since 2007 have Sevilla beaten Barcelona and last season saw them draw at home but lose at Barcelona and in the Copa del Rey final. They could only finish seventh in La Liga last season and are in the Europa League this year, struggling to get a 1-0 home win over Zalgiris on Thursday. Barcelona with their best players available again can win this game as they prepare for the new La Liga season that starts next weekend
