Espanyol 3-1 Celta Vigo

After four La Liga defeats in a row, Espanyol returned to winning ways with an impressive victory at home to Celta Vigo. Irvin Cardona, Leandro Cabrera and Walid Cheddira scored for the hosts, with Iago Aspas' second half penalty proving to a consolation for the Galicians.

Alaves 1-1 Leganes

Alaves' poor form in La Liga continued with a draw at home to Leganes, although Luis Garcia Plaza's side had to be bailed out by a late equaliser. Oscar Rodriguez had given the visitors the lead in Vitoria, before a late strike from the impressive Carlos Vicente meant that the points were shared.
