For the first time this season the six forwards are all in the squad

Pressured by Real Madrid's win in Saturday, Barca want to get three points from the clash with Sevilla ahead of the international break. And Camp Nou expects the arrival to form and fitness of Messi and Suarez along with the other heavy artillery.

If tonight were a poker game, Valverde is all-in. He's holding nothing back and for the first time this season he has his six forwards all in the squad.

Messi, Luis Suárez, Griezmann, Dembélé, Ansu Fati and Carles Pérez are all available and have been called up. That said one player from the 19 man list must be cut and it might be Perez, like against Villarreal.

After Sevilla it's the international break and the next home league game is the Clasico. That means that only tonight, Eibar and Slavia Prague are the last matches for the MSG attack to get it right.

Right now it's Messi and Suarez putting out the fires, waiting for the third man in attack to click. How little has changed in that sense.

The card up the sleeve is Ousmane Dembele. His explosiveness is perfect for the second half if things aren't going well. But Ansu is back too and he adds speed and spark.
