- Valencia have won four of their last five — all by a single goal - Celta Vigo have scored in 13 of their 15 LaLiga away matches - Real Madrid have kept one clean sheet in seven LaLiga home fixtures

Barcelona marched on in the Champions League in midweek but the LaLiga leaders will have to be wary of Real Madrid, who are now free of European commitments and can focus solely on eating into the Catalans' four-point advantage at the summit.

Barca host Celta Vigo at Montjuic on Saturday afternoon while Real will look to respond to their 5-1 aggregate defeat to Arsenal when Athletic Bilbao go to the Bernabeu on Sunday.

Espanyol vs Getafe (Friday, 8pm)

Back-to-back wins have steered Espanyol clear of relegation but they are facing a Getafe side who are brimming with belief having won four of their last five on their travels.

The hosts have played out five 1-1 draws at home this season so a score-draw looks a likely scenario.

Score prediction: Espanyol 1-1 Getafe

Rayo Vallecano vs Valencia (Saturday, 1pm)

Rayo Vallecano have claimed just one win from their last eight matches and are not certain to see off resurgent Valencia. Carlos Corberan has improved Los Che, who could edge to a third 1-0 win in four outings.

Score prediction: Rayo Vallecano 0-1 Valencia

Barcelona vs Celta Vigo (Saturday, 3.15pm)

Leaders Barcelona have won 10 of their last 11 LaLiga matches and look unlikely to slip up against Celta Vigo. However, the visitors held the Catalans to a draw in Galicia in November, scoring twice, and could make their mark in defeat.

Score prediction: Barcelona 3-1 Celta Vigo

Mallorca vs Leganes (Saturday, 5.30pm)

Mallorca returned to winning ways against Real Sociedad last weekend and should account for lowly Leganes. The relegation-threatened visitors have claimed just one point from their last five matches, but did score in four of them.

Score prediction: Mallorca 2-1 Leganes

Las Palmas vs Atletico Madrid (Saturday, 8pm)

Las Palmas picked up a much-needed win over Getafe last time out but could struggle to live with another Madrid club when Atletico visit Gran Canaria.

Atleti have rediscovered their scoring touch in recent weeks, beating Sevilla 2-1 and Valladolid 4-2.

Score prediction: Las Palmas 1-2 Atletico Madrid

Real Valladolid vs Osasuna (Sunday, 1pm)

Relegation beckons for Real Valladolid, who are showing no signs of improvement and may suffer a 12th defeat in 13 matches. Visitors Osasuna beat Girona 2-1 last time out and look set for another narrow success.

Score prediction: Real Valladolid 0-1 Osasuna

Villarreal vs Real Sociedad (Sunday, 3.15pm)

Villarreal have failed to win any of their last three at home and appear vulnerable against a talented, but inconsistent, Real Sociedad side. La Real have suffered one loss in four and can avoid defeat.

Score prediction: Villarreal 1-1 Real Sociedad

Sevilla vs Alaves (Sunday, 5.30pm)

Sevilla are looking over their shoulders following four straight defeats and they could struggle to claim victory against Alaves, who are scrapping for LaLiga survival. The Basque club have lost just one of their last eight away matches.

Score prediction: Sevilla 1-1 Alaves

Real Madrid vs Athletic Bilbao (Sunday, 8pm)

Real Madrid need a positive response after their Champions League exit but Athletic Bilbao are a tough nut to crack. However, a short turnaround after their midweek Europa League outing could leave the visitors vulnerable, so Los Blancos can edge it.

Score prediction: Real Madrid 2-1 Athletic Bilbao

Girona vs Real Betis (Monday, 8pm)

Girona are in horrendous form and will be desperate for points in a bid to avoid being drawn into the relegation dogfight.

Real Betis have dropped points against Barcelona and Villarreal over the last fortnight but had previously won six on the bounce.

Score prediction: Girona 1-2 Real Betis
