Barcelona's Argentinian forward Lionel Messi celebrates after scoring against Espanyol in the team's penultimate match of the season.

Barcelona would go on to defeat its cross-town rivals 5-0 and ensure that a victory against Granada on Saturday will secure the La Liga title.

Top scorer Luis Suarez was on the mark twice for the reigning Spanish champions.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid defeated Valencia 3-2 at the Santiago Bernabeu Sunday.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice for Zinedine Zidane's team.

Karim Benzema (right) also found the target for Real against Valencia.

Real is now the only team that has any chance of beating out Barcelona in their race for a second consecutive La Liga title.

Fernando Torres celebrates scoring for Atletico Madrid against Levante Sunday.

However, Atleti would eventually succumb 2-1 to its already relegated opponent.

The result, coupled with Barcelona's victory over Espanyol means Atletico can no longer win the La Liga title.
