Good evening and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE coverage of the Spanish Liga clash between Barcelona and Malaga. We'll bring you all the action from Camp Nou. Kick off is at 7.45pm.

There were questions asked over the selection of Alcacer for this game this evening, but he more than justified his place, scoring Barcelona's two goals in a 2-1 win. Will this be the game that launches his career at Camp Nou? The result means Barca have an 11 point lead over Real Madrid.

FULL TIME: Barcelona 1-0 Sevilla

Messi gets the first yellow card of the match in stoppage time. That was a late challenge.

In theory, Mascherano will give Barcelona some more steel in the centre of the pitch, making it more difficult for Sevilla to break them down in the final moments of this game.

Four minutes of stoppage time seems rather generous. But that gives Sevilla some time to find an equaliser. Although it's not really in the nature of Barcelona to sit back and invite pressure.

Four minutes of stoppage time to be played at the end of the match.

It's Rakitic who is coming off for Barcelona and he will be replaced by Mascherano.

Paulinho has given Barcelona something different since coming on. That's what the Brazilian does. He certainly isn't your typical Barca player, but that's what makes him so good.

Barcelona are just looking to slow down the pace of this game. Sevilla are pressing high on them, but the Catalans are composed enough to pass it around them, relieving the pressure.

Sevilla have the ball and are camped on the edge of the Barcelona penalty are. Everyone is back for the Catalans, including Deulofeu, who wins the ball this time.

Barcelona need to keep their concentration here. We've already seen how dangerous Sevilla can be on the counter attack. It's not beyond the visitors to find a second equaliser.

Rakitic has now gone off the pitch to receive some treatment. The Croatian has been in good form this evening. Thankfully for Barcelona, it looks like he will be back on very soon.

PENALTY CLAIM! Rakitic makes a stupdendous run from one penalty area to the other, but he is pushed off the ball just as is about to pull the trigger. Penalty claims are waved away.

One of the biggest surprises of the season so far has been the impact Paulinho has made at Barcelona. The Brazilian has made a difference since coming on for Iniesta tonight.

Alba fouls Navas. That probably should have been a yellow card for the Barcelona left back, but the referee decides to keep his cards in his pocket. There hasn't been a booking yet.

What has happened to Suarez? He looks so far off the pace it's unbelievable. How has one of the best players in the world managed to fall so low? He is a shadow of his former self.

Apologies, some technical problems on our end. If you want to know the ins and outs, things have just got really slow. But we'll stick with it. You've not missed too much of the game.

A change for Sevilla. Kjaer has been taken off for the away side.

That goal came at just the right time for Barcelona. Sevilla had come back into the game, equalising and pressing for a second, but they got their noses ahead before it became a real problem.
