After three weeks on the road to start the La Liga season champions Barcelona play their first home match on Sunday, although it won't be the glorious return to the rebuilt Spotify Camp Nou they had hoped for.
The Catalan giants will host Valencia at their 6,000-capacity Johan Cruyff training ground stadium as they bid to keep pace with leaders Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao.
