Cristiano Ronaldo will be hoping for a better end to tonight's game against Frosinone after he was sent off in Juventus' win against Valencia in the Champions League, something which could see him ruled out of their game at Old Trafford against Manchester United.

Barcelona, meanwhile, are looking to make it five wins from five La Liga matches when they host Girona - a fixture that has controversially been tipped to be played in Miami next season.

Lionel Messi's side have started the season in great form and made light work of PSV in the opening game of their Champions League group.

Follow the live action from their matches below:

Frosinone vs Juventus kicks off at 19:30 BST at the Stadio Benito Stirpe.

46min: Barcelona 1-1 Girona

We're back underway at the Camp Nou, but not before both sides make a change. Samuel Umtiti replaces fellow countryman Ousmane Dembele, while Manchester City loanee Aleix Garcia is replaced by Borja Garcia.

Which way will the pendulum swing in Catalonia?

51 min: GOAL! Barcelona 1-2 Girona (Stuani)

What a turnaround in Barcelona! Portu is put through once again, and despite being taken down by Pique, he picks himself up and shoots at goal. Ter Stegen denies him but Stuani is on hand to rifle home the rebound and score his second of the game.

All to do for the hosts.

75min: Frosinone 0-0 Juventus

The Canarini are firmly ensconced defending their 18-yard box as hopes of a second point of the season draw closer. Can the visitors break through as the likes of Bernadeschi and Alex Sandro pile the pressure on from the wings?

  ↵Stuani at the double!

60min: Barcelona 1-2 Girona

Double substitution for the hosts as Coutinho and Rakitic replace Vidal and Arthur. The double change is nearly followed by another bit of brilliance from Messi, but his long-range free-kick strikes the corner of the goalframe.

81min: GOAL! Frosinone 0-1 Juventus (Ronaldo)

It was scrappy, but it has been coming. Juventus' new star makes it three from six by finally getting the better of Marco Sportiello with a left-foot effort inside the box after Pjanic's shot fell kindly into his path.

63 min: GOAL! Barcelona 2-2 Girona (Pique)

Barcelona have looked much better since the changes and they are level soon after, as Gerard Pique heads level after a rather scrappy build up with Luis Suarez heavily involved.

Watch how Juventus finally broke the deadlock through that man Ronaldo, and the subsequent crazy celebrations!

  ↵This is how Gerard Pique atoned for his part in the Girona goals with one of his own.

90min: Frosinone 0-1 Juventus

Five minutes added on at the Stadio Benito Stirpe, but Frosinone look like a beaten side. Can they conjure up one last push?
