Barcelona will begin their quest for another title beginning today at San Mames.

Ahead of the match, Luis Enrique revealed that Barcelona are favorites for the league and are confident to defend the title.

"It's a long season and it's all about consistency, but starting with a win is always good," he said.

"We're the champions and we have to defend our title. We're the favourites just as Atletico [Madrid] were last season. As the year goes on things can change. 

"It will be a competitive league, with three or four teams in with a chance.

"It's been unusual in that we've had to play for two trophies off the back of what we did last season. 

"We're in good condition and are ready to compete. We're excited to play good football and to win trophies."

Pique will miss 4 games due to the ban which means he will miss the action tonight  against Athletic Bilbao.
