Barcelona will have the opportunity to extend their lead at the top of LALIGA to 11 points when they travel to Getafe on Saturday.

This follows Real Madrid’s 1–1 draw with Real Betis on Friday night.

Los Blancos appeared to be on course for a narrow 1-0 victory at Estadio La Cartuja. Vinicius Junior scored for Madrid, latching onto the rebound of Federico Valverde’s shot.

However, Hector Bellerin drilled in a last-gasp equaliser, dealing a significant blow to Madrid’s title aspirations.

Alvaro Arbeloa’s men are now eight points behind Barca with only five fixtures remaining.
