    Of course, Suarez showed Barcelona what they are missing earlier today, coming off the bench to score twice and assist another on his Atletico Madrid debut against Granada.

    This will be a big season for Griezmann. The Frenchman struggled in his first season at Barcelona, but there is a sense that Koeman's system might suit him better. He is playing through the middle.

    Barcelona have started the better of the two teams, certainly in terms of the share of possession. However, that suits Villarreal who are looking to play on the rapid counter attack.

    Villarreal were in behind! That was an early opportunity for the away side, but both Alcacer and Chukwueze were too generous with the ball when they should have taken the shot themselves!

    Coutinho is back at Barcelona after a season on loan at Bayern Munich. The Brazilian was pretty successful in Bavaria, but Bayern decided against signing him on a permanent basis.

    In terms of incoming transfers, it has been a quiet summer for Barcelona. Koeman wanted Memphis and Wijnaldum to be signed, but that hasn't materialised yet. Rakitic, Semedo, Suarez and Vidal have left, though.

    There has been a lot of chat about how Koeman will coach this Barcelona team. Messi appears to be positioned on the right with Ansu on the left. De Jong in deep midfield is interesting.

    Tonight is Barcelona's first competitive fixture since that disastrous Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich in Lisbon. A lot has happened at the club since then!

    The two teams are out on the hallowed turf at the Camp Nou. The subs have taken their place in the stands.
    19:57
    Parejo tends to play well against Barcelona. Can he carry that trait over to his new club? He's in the Villarreal starting lineup tonight!

    Not long until kick off at the Camp Nou. There is a lot of pressure on Barcelona to start their Liga season well, especially after Real Madrid's win over Real Betis last night. This won't be easy, though.
    19:50
    Villarreal have had a busy summer. They appointed Emery as their new manager and have strengthened significantly, signing Coquelin and Parejo from Valencia and Kubo arriving on loan from Real Madrid.
