Girona looked so threatening on the break in the first half but they have really struggles at times to get out since the interval. Barcelona certainly look the likelier to get the next goal, if there is to be one...

Ferran Torres has looked very lively since joining the action and he's already causing Girona issues down Barcelona's left.

He wins a free-kick, which Ilkay Gundogan uses to have a pop - but over it sails.

A triple change for Barcelona.

On come Ferran Torres, Lamine Yamal and Alejandro Balde.

Raphinha, Joao Felix and Andreas Christensen make way.

Daley Blind becomes the first player to receive a booking tonight for a late tackle.

Robert Lewandowski slaps his legs in frustration after heading over the bar as another chance goes begging.

Xavi is preparing to make several changes here.

Yan Couto also misses the target as Girona enjoy a continued period of pressure and Barcelona are looking slightly nervous in defence.

Girona failed to attempt a shot in the first 15 minutes of the second half, but that wait is ended as Viktor Tsygankov fires wide. This is a much better spell for Girona, with finally some possession in the Barcelona half.

It's wave after wave of Barcelona attack, with Raphinha the next home player to test Paulo Gazzaniga but again it's comfortable enough for the Girona goalkeeper.

It's been all Barcelona since half-time, but that's 10 more minutes down for Girona with their lead still intact.

Raphinha surprises everyone - including possibly Robert Lewandowski who had been shaping up to hit the free-kick - as he tries his luck but fails to trouble Paulo Gazzaniga.

Lewandowski isn't hiding his emotions after that. He wanted it!

The pressure builds on the Girona penalty area and Barcelona will have a free-kick on the edge of the box after Eric Garcia goes through the back of Robert Lewandowski.

This is a real chance to test Paulo Gazzaniga.

Paulo Gazzaniga is down after being caught on the back of the head by Robert Lewandowski, the Poland international shaking his head disapprovingly in the face of accusations he may have done so on purpose.

Barcelona have come out from the break with real intent, but another attack falters as Joao Felix misplaces a pass.

Daley Blind battles with Robert Lewandowski as the Barcelona forward threatens to burst into the Girona penalty area following the restart and cuts out the danger for his side. No hanging about at the start of the second period!

Back under way for the second half!

Here come the players.

Can Girona see out a significant victory or rise above Real Madrid to the La Liga summit, or will Barcelona find a way to turn this around to reignite their own title ambitions?

Earlier today, Granada's La Liga home match against Athletic Bilbao was abandoned after a supporter died in the stands at Nuevo Los Carmenes stadium.

The game was paused after 18 minutes, with Athletic leading 1-0 through an early Inaki Williams strike.

Players from both sides left the pitch 20 minutes later with supporters also requested to leave the stadium.

La Liga then confirmed the match had been postponed and it will be played on 11 December at 20:00 GMT, restarting from the 17th minute.

Granada said in a statement the match was "suspended indefinitely after the death of a club season ticket holder" and offered their condolences to the fan's "family and friends as well as to the entire Granada family".

Barcelona really need to find a response in the second half.

Otherwise, they will trail league leaders Girona by seven points.

Who could have predicted this at the start of the campaign...

The upset is on for Girona. A title fight may very well be too.

The visitors lead at half-time - a result which would see them replace Real Madrid at the top of La Liga tonight.

A long way to go, of course. Let's hope for more of the same in the second half because that was a lot of fun.

We're going to have three minutes added on at the end of this excellent first half in Barcelona.

Still no let-up from either side.

What a time for Girona to retake the lead too.

Former Real Madrid man Miguel Gutierrez has his first league goal of the season and it could mean his side have something to hold on to heading in at half-time.
