It was a simple evening for Barcelona, who are closing in on the La Liga title as they swept aside bottom-placed Malaga on Saturday evening.
First half goals from a Luis Suarez header and a silky Philippe Coutinho backheel brought the required goals for the visiting side as they walked through to another three points, with talisman Lionel Messi absent after the birth of his third child.
The tone for proceedings was set early on, with the visitors displaying their strength and their unconquerable passing game on display from the whistle.
Suarez found himself close to the opener on 13 minutes when played in Paulinho, jinking and weaving from right to left to drill his shot into the stiff right hand of Roberto.
