    Mallorca 0-0 Barcelona

    Barcelona have taken 16 points after their first six games in La Liga 22-23 (won five, drew one) and conceded just one goal - their best start in terms of points at this stage in a top-flight campaign since 2017-18 (18 points, won six) and they haven't conceded fewer goals after six games since 2014-15 (0).

    Mallorca 0-0 Barcelona

    Sergio Busquets tries to dink a ball over the top of the Mallorca defence with Robert Lewandowski looking to get onto it, but the home defence manages to clear. Barcelona regain the ball and it falls to Gavi, but his shot is wayward.

    Mallorca 0-0 Barcelona

    Mallorca get into a decent position down the left but dangerman Vedat Muriqi can't find a team-mate with an attempted cross and it's easy for Barcelona to clear their lines.

  5. How it standspublished at 19:58 British Summer Time 1 October 2022

    There have already been three matches in La Liga today...

    • Cadiz 0-0 Villarreal
    • Getafe 2-3 Real Valladolid
    • Sevilla 0-2 Atletico Madrid

    And this is how it leaves the table. Barcelona, as we have said, go top with a win, although will then drop down to second again if Real Madrid win at home against Osasuna tomorrow.

  8. Stop Lewandowskipublished at 19:53 British Summer Time 1 October 2022

    Mallorca v Barcelona (20:00 BST)

    Can Mallorca stop Robert Lewandowski, who has scored eight goals in his first six games for Barcelona in La Liga since his summer move from Bayern Munich?

    Only two players have exceeded that tally in their first seven games of a campaign in the competition - Cristiano Ronaldo (10 in 2014-15) and Lionel Messi (nine in 2017-18).

    Gerard Pique makes only his second start of the season for Barcelona, while Ansu Fati starts a La Liga game for the first time in 2022-23 after scoring twice as a substitute this campaign.

    Barcelona: Ter Stegen, Alba, Christensen, Pique, Kessie, Balde, Busquets, Dembele, Gavi, Lewandowski, Fati.

  10. Heading top?published at 19:44 British Summer Time 1 October 2022

    Barcelona are yet to lose in La Liga this season with five wins and a draw with only one goal conceded.

    Yet they are still only second as Real Madrid have a 100% record, but with Real not in action until tomorrow, Barcelona will end the day on the top of the table if they win away at Mallorca.
