Sergio Ramos, who joined Sevilla as a free agent, is set to face Barcelona for the first time since leaving Real Madrid. The 37-year-old was not available for the match against Osasuna and did not play a minute against Almeria either.
However, he is expected to start against the Catalan giants after recovering from his minor injury. Ramos is the second player - the first is Lionel Messi - to make the most appearances in 'El Clasico'.
Moreover, the defender also played twice against Barcelona during his first spell at Sevilla. The centre-back has joined Jose Luis Mendilibar's side to make an impact in defence and will be looking to help his team in Friday's La Liga clash.
