Preview: Malaga vs. Barcelona

Malaga take on La Liga champions Barcelona in Sunday's evening kickoff.

Malaga host Barcelona in La Liga on Sunday night looking to bounce back from their opening-day defeat to Valencia last Saturday.

However, they come up against a high-flying Barcelona side who destroyed Levante 7-0 in their opener, with Lionel Messi and Pedro helping themselves to a hat-trick each.

Unfortunately for Barca, the fitness of Messi remains uncertain following the knock he picked up in the Super Cup against Atletico Madrid, but there are no other injury concerns.

Malaga will remain without Eliseu and possibly Flavio Ferreira for the clash as they look to respond with a good performance.
