Good evening everybody and welcome along to another MARCA in English live blog, this time taking you through the LaLiga EA Sports clash between Barcelona and Celta Vigo at Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys in Barcelona.

The Catalans are in fine form, with five wins on the bounce in all competitions following the opening day draw with Getafe. It also looks as though Barcelona are becoming more and more comfortable at their temporary ground at Montjuic, with back-to-back 5-0 wins against Real Betis andAntwerp in the last week.

The two deadline day signings of Joao Cancelo and Joao Felix have added another dimension to Xavi's side, and they will be fully expected to win against a Celta side that have won just one of their opening five league games.

Rafa Benitez's side have had more joy away than at home this season, with their only win so far coming in a 3-2 win at Almeria, while they also drew 1-1 at Real Sociedad.

For the hosts, Pedri remains sidelined although Ronald Araujo is back in the squad after a lengthy layoff. Oriol Romeu was left out of the starting XI that defeated Antwerp in midweek, but is expected to come back into the side on Saturday. The two deadline day signings Joao Felix and Joao Cancelo are likely to keep their places after blistering starts, although Raphinha and Ferran Torres will also be knocking on the door for a starting spot.

As for Celta, Franco Cervi is their only confirmed absentee, while talisman Iago Aspas will be desperate to score his first goal of the campaign.
