Good evening and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE coverage of the Spanish Liga fixture between Barcelona and Alaves. We'll bring you all the action as it happens at the Camp Nou. Kick off is at 20:00 GMT.

FULL TIME: Barcelona 4-1 Alaves

GOOOOOOO... NO! Trincao has the ball in the back of the net, but the flag is up against the Portuguese forward. That's a shame. That would have been a hat trick on his first league start!

Having struggled for much of his Barcelona career, Griezmann has found some exceptional form in recent weeks. Indeed, the French forward finally looks like the player Barca bought him to be.

Busquets has been more like his old self of late. The veteran midfielder started the season poorly, but has found some good form recently. He can still be a key figure for Barcelona.

The uncertainty over Barcelona’s finances means they might have to rely more on their youth academy over the coming years. It’s just as well then that there are a lot of exciting youngsters coming through.

Of course, the biggest task the new Barcelona president will face is balancing the books. This is a club that is in roughly £1 billion worth of debt. Laporta or Font or whoever has a lot of financial work to do.

Sainz is introduced. At this stage, Alaves surely just want to go home.

Dembele is also on off the bench for the final moments of the match.

On comes Deyverson for the away side, although it's too late to change anything.

Going back to Koeman's future, just this week it was reported that Laporta plans to approach Ralf Rangnick and Julian Nagelsmann about taking over at Barcelona as sporting director and head coach for next season.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Barcelona 5 (80 mins - Junior Firpo) Alaves 1. It's a fifth goal for Barcelona! This is turning into a rout! Messi clips a wonderful pass over the top for Griezmann who looks for the run of Firpo to the back post with a low cross. The full back only had to finish from a yard or two out!

Koeman’s own future is also tied to the outcome of the Barcelona presidential election. The Dutchman has until the end of the season to prove to the new boss that he’s the right man for the job.

A few weeks ago, speculation over a potential Messi switch to Paris Saint-Germain reached a crescendo, with Koeman even hitting back at the French club’s players for talking about the possibility.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Barcelona 4 (76 mins - Lionel Messi) Alaves 1. Two goals in two minutes! And it's another classic Messi moment! Mingueza fed the pass to the Argentine who cut inside on to his left foot and curled a strike into the back of the net from just over 20 yards out! Game definitely over now!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Barcelona 3 (74 mins - Francisco Trincao) Alaves 1. Trincao has his second goal of the night and Barcelona surely have the points in the bag now! Messi was released through, Pacheco makes the save, but Trincao was on hand to finish into the back of the empty net! Game over.

Dest is also on for the final 15 minutes as he makes his return following injury.

A change for Barcelona and Pjanic is coming on to replace de Jong.
