All set for opening weekend with plenty of unknowns in La Liga

Madrid, Aug 13 (UNI) The ball gets rolling on the new La Liga season this weekend with matches played from Friday night and carrying on until Tuesday, when Xabi Alonso's new-look Real Madrid gets into action.
Real Madrid tried unsuccessfully to get La Liga to postpone its game at home to Osasuna, alleging that the club's participation in the Club World Cup this summer didn't allow enough preparation time after the squad only returned to work on August 4 after its exertions in June and July.
Eduardo Camavinga is out with a muscle injury, while Jude Bellingham is recovering from a shoulder operation and Antonio Rudiger is suspended as he serves the last game of a ban picked up for his appalling behavior at the end of last season's Copa del Rey final against FC Barcelona.
