    Barcelona started the La Liga season with two wins but since then they have drawn two and lost two of their last four games.

    Barcelona v Real Betis (15:15 GMT)

    Lionel Messi gets a rare rest for Barcelona, but he's on the bench in case of emergency.

    Up front are two of the most expensive players ever - in Antoine Griezmann and Ousmane Dembele - alongside academy product Ansu Fati.

    Six Real Betis players have been at Barcelona, including their youth team. Right-back Emerson is on loan from Barca.
