Jose Mourinho begins his second spell in charge of Real Madrid in Barcelona tonight as his side visit Espanyol.
Mourinho is back at Madrid after a 13-year absence and tasked with restoring the club to its former glories after two trophyless seasons.
Madrid have invested heavily in the transfer market this summer and will be expected to put up a stronger challenge in the title race.
It is not an easy start, though, with Espanyol opening their campaign with a 3-0 win at home to Levante last weekend.
