BARCELONA (Reuters) - Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde said on Friday he will be wary of Malaga's strong recent record against his side when La Liga's basement club, who have only taken one point from their first eight league games, visit the Nou Camp.

Barca, meanwhile, are flying high at the top of the standings, with seven wins from eight and a perfect record in the Champions League, but have struggled in their last few meetings with Malaga.
