GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Barcelona 1 (13 mins - Lionel Messi) Espanyol 1. There's the equaliser, and it didn't take Barcelona long to find it! Iniesta picks out Messi, and the number 10 picks his spot to restore parity. Good finish.

It was Alves who lost the ball on the halfway line, which gave Asensio possession for the counter attack that resulted in Caicedo's opener. The Brazilian is better than that!

MESSI SHOULD HAVE SCORED! The Argentine plays a wonderful clipped one-two with Neymar, but his left-footed shot is saved well by Lopez in the Espanyol goal. Great chance.

Well, that was unexpected. Espanyol have been camped deep inside their own half for much of the match. That was perhaps the fist time they have even been in the opposition box!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Barcelona 0 Espanyol 1 (10 mins - Felip Caicedo). That goal has come completely against the run of play! Espanyol hit Barcelona on the attack, and Caicedo finishes low in the bottom corner after a surge forward by Asensio.

NEYMAR COULDN'T FORCE IT HOME! Messi does really well to poke through a pass for Neymar, who was in behind the Espanyol defence - but Lopez came off his line to smother the shot.
7'
Some pundits and commentators actually criticised Espanyol for the way they played against Barcelona at the weekend. They felt they were sometimes on the verge of what's legal.

These two teams played on Saturday, with Barcelona forced to settle for a goalless draw at the Cornella. Espanyol did well to hold firm that afternoon - can they do the same again?

TURAN INTO THE ACTION IMMEDIATELY! The Turkish international plays a good ball into Neymar, who takes aim at goal - but a combination of Espanyol defenders make the block.

This is a very strong starting lineup from Luis Enrique. It's actually a little suprising that he has gone so strong, especially with so many games scheduled for the next few weeks.

Of course, the big team news this evening is that Arda Turan is finally making his debut for Barcelona, after joining from Atletico Madrid in the summer. He might actually eat the football.
