Barcelona can close to within three points of the Primera Division title if they can overcome Alaves on Tuesday at the Mendizorrotza.
Ernesto Valverde’s side moved to 77 points on Saturday with a 2-1 victory over Real Sociedad, and can move 12 points clear of Atletico Madrid in midweek with just 15 left to play for.
For their part, Alaves have enjoyed a decent campaign and are situated in eighth, though they have failed to win any of their last five fixtures, drawing 2-2 with Real Valladolid at the weekend.
