Preview: Barcelona vs. Granada

Match preview of Barcelona's home clash against Granada in La Liga on Saturday.

Top-of-the-table Barcelona host Granada on Saturday, with the visitors looking to continue their strong start to the season.

Barcelona have only dropped points once this season and have won all six of their games so far at Camp Nou.

Granada have been better away from home so far and have picked up three wins from six on their travels, with just 11 goals against in 13 games overall.

For the hosts, Gerard Pique and Adriano could return to the defence, although Jordi Alba remains a long-term absentee and has been joined by Victor Valdes.

Granada could see Allan Nyom return to the lineup following his suspension but there are unlikely to be many changes following a good win against Malaga before the international break.
