The winners of this year’s La Liga title, will be confirmed on the last day of the season.
Real Madrid are in pole position to win it for the first time in five years, after they crushed Celta Vigo 4-1 in their outstanding game played in midweek.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice to take Zinedine Zidane’s men to within a point of the La Liga title.
Madrid only need to draw at Malaga on Sunday, to lift their 33rd La Liga title.
Their arch rivals, Barcelona will host Eibar at the same time, hoping that Zidane’s men slip and they take full advantage.
Sevilla’s defeat at the Bernabeu last week, guarantees they will finish fourth and Atletico Madrid, who drew 1-1 at Real Betis, qualify automatically for next season’s Champions League in third.
At the bottom, Sporting Gijon have joined Granada and Osasuna in being relegated despite winning 1-0 at Eibar.
