They need to beat Osasuna at home and pray for Real Madrid to lose at Athletic Bilbao. Zinedine Zidane's Los Blancos will be ready to pounce on any slip-up from their neighbours.

And leading the charge for Atleti will be Luis Suarez, who has scored 19 goals in his first season at the club since joining from Barcelona. The 34-year-old won four La Liga titles during his time at Barca, including a very tight one in 2016 - a season in which he overshadowed both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo with 40 goals. All eyes will be on the Uruguayan.
