    Guingamp 0-0 PSG

    Neymar plays an almost brilliant pass over the top, which just bounces away from Angel di Maria. The Brazilian is spraying some passes around in the early stages out on the left wing, where he starts.

    Barcelona v Real Madrid (21:00 BST)

    Gerard Deulofeu - formerly of Everton - is the man chosen to fill Neymar's boots in the Barcelona attack, having returned to the club this summer. He lines up alongside Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez. Other than that, the starting XI is as you would expect.

    Barcelona: Ter Stegen, Vidal, Alba, Pique, Umtiti, Rakitic, Iniesta, Busquets, Suarez, Messi, Deulofeu.

    Subs: Cillessen, Semedo, Denis, Mascherano, Alcacer, Digne, Roberto.

    Guingamp v PSG (20:00 BST)

    The players are out now, it's almost time for action. Handshakes all round, I wonder if Neymar recognises any of the Guingamp players.

    Barcelona v Real Madrid (21:00 BST)

    Real Madrid have named Cristiano Ronaldo on the bench for the Spanish Super Cup first leg. The Portuguese forward was also named among the substitutes for the Uefa Super Cup win over Manchester United on 8 August as Real look to ease him back in following a busy summer in the Confederations Cup.

    Isco, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema comprise the forward line.

    Mateo Kovacic is in midfield alongside Casemiro and Toni Kroos.

    Real Madrid: Navas, Carvajal, Ramos, Varane, Marcelo, Casemiro, Kroos, Kovacic, Bale, Benzema, Isco.

    Subs: Casilla, Nacho, Ronaldo, Theo, Lucas, Asensio, Ceballos.

    Juventus 0-0 Lazio

    Juan Cuadrado has almost given Juventus the lead against Lazio but Thomas Strakosha pulled off an excellent reflex save to deny him. And from the corner, the 22-year-old Albania international again denies Paulo Dybala. And now he keeps out Gonzalo Higuain's bouncing shot. Busy start.

    Barcelona v Real Madrid (21:00 BST)

    It's the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup at the Nou Camp at 21:00 BST between Ernesto Valverde's Barca and Real Madrid - and we will be bringing you regular updates from Catalonia here.

    Team news for that on its way.

    is there a more universally liked player than Gianluigi Buffon? Andrea Pirlo maybe? Does anybody hate them? Get in touch if you do!

    Also on tonight is the Italian Super Cup between Juventus and Lazio in Rome's Olympic Stadium, home of the champions' opponents.

    Ex-Liverpool midfielder Lucas makes his Lazio debut, Juve name a strong side.

    Last year's Super Cup was in Qatar two days before Christmas - the Italians like to mix the format up a bit.

    It has just kicked off - we will bring you some updates during the game.

    Juventus: Buffon, Barzagli, Benatia, Chiellini, Alex Sandro, Khedira, Pjanic, Cuadrado, Dybala, Mandzukic, Higuain.

    Lazio: Strakosha, Wallace, De Vrij, Radu, Basta, Parolo, Leiva, Luis Alberto, Lulic, Milinkovic, Immobile.

    My favourite thing about the Neymar transfer was the idea of his legal team wandering around Spain looking for somebody to take 222m euros.

    La Liga, which was supposed to be paid the release clause in his contract, refused the payment so they had to go to Barcelona's offices to give it to them directly.

    Kuti: If he wins the Champions League with PSG then yes

    Daniel Fletcher: Only way Neymar wins Ballon d'Or at PSG is if they win Champions League, convincingly, knocking out the elite and him scoring freely

    King Didier: Champions League, French title, French cup and a lot of goals and assists..? At the minimum...

    Neymar joined Paris St-Germain before last weekend's match against Amiens in their Ligue 1 opener, but his international transfer certificate missed the deadline so he couldn't play.

    He was paraded in front of the fans on the pitch before the 2-0 win.

  13. Line-ups - Neymar startspublished at 19:35 British Summer Time 13 August 2017

    Guingamp v PSG (20:00 BST)

    As you'd expect for a player who cost £200m, Neymar starts. The Brazilian, Edinson Cavani and Angel di Maria is a pretty potent frontline. Although it's not exactly Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez.

    Dani Alves makes his second Ligue 1 appearance.

    Here is the line-up for Guingamp, who are 10-1 to win this game: Johnsson, Ikoko, Kerbrat, Sorbon, Rebocho, Camara, Didot, Deaux, Coco, Salibur, Briand

    Neymar's move to Paris St-Germain is reportedly down to him wanting to win the Ballon d'Or and be out of the shadow of Lionel Messi.

    Do you think he is more or less likely to be named the world's best player in France? What will he have to do this season to lift the golden ball?

  15. The Neymar era beginspublished at 19:25 British Summer Time 13 August 2017

    Sometimes you reach the start of the season and think 'I didn't realise Jay Rodriguez joined West Brom', 'who is this Roque Mesa that Swansea paid £11m for' or 'when did AC Milan sign Hakan Calhanoglu?'

    Conversely there are some transfers it is impossible to miss - unless you work in an Antarctic research station with no internet, or don't like football.

    So I'm going to presume since you're here, you already know that Paris St-Germain signed Neymar for £200m and want to find out how he gets on in his debut today at Guingamp.

    Welcome.
