Top plays bottom in La Liga as Barcelona travel to Leganes. Barcelona lost their 100 per cent record at the weekend when having to come from behind to get a point at home to sixth placed Girona. They still top the table but are level on points with Real Madrid. Barcelona have 13 points this season which is 12 more than their opponents have. The league leaders had won their first four league games of the season and had a convincing win over PSV in the Champions League . Away form has seen just one loss in their last 24 La Liga games and last season at Leganes they won 3-0 and it was 5-1 the season before.

Leganes are rock bottom of the table with just one point from their five league games. Pre-season had gone well with six games unbeaten but that form hasn't been reproduced in La Liga. They started off with defeat at Athletic Bilbao losing to a 93rd minute winner. Their only point came from their first home game as they drew 2-2 with Real Sociedad coming back from two goals down. A 4-1 loss at Real Madrid followed, though it was level at half-time. Their next two games ended in 1-0 defeats by Villarreal and Eibar. Barcelona can win this game and be ahead at both half and full time.
