Real Madrid will look to clear one final hurdle in their pursuit of the LaLiga title on Sunday when the visit in-form Malaga.

Zinedine Zidane’s men need just a point to regain the crown they last landed in 2011/12 but come up against a side who have collected 13 points from their last five games.

Malaga also beat Barcelona at La Rosaleda and pushed Real close at the Bernabeu, going down 2-1, while they boast one of the league’s form strikers in Sandro Ramirez.

The La Masia graduate put a dent in his former club’s title hopes when he broke the deadlock last month, one of his seven goals in eight games.

That makes him an appealing option at 10/1 with Paddy Power to net first, while he’s best priced at 23/10 with 32Red to score anytime with over 4.5 goals only a shade of odds-against.

That leads on to the main bet for this match - Real Madrid to win and both teams to score.

As tempting as Malaga are at 10/1 in places, Real have proven time and time again this season that they are capable of delivering on the big stage.

From their 39 wins in all competitions they’ve recorded just 11 clean sheets and one in their last five, so against an in-form side with an in-form striker, getting Real at 23/20 with BetStars with Malaga scoring rather than the 1/4 on them just to win makes sense.

The same logic can be applied to Barca’s must-win clash with Eibar.

Luis Enrique’s side simply have to win and hope their old boy Sandro inspires an upset but will also be keen to put on a fine final show at the Nou Camp.

It’s sure to be an emotional affair in Enrique’s final game in charge, which certainly changes the dynamic, while the season’s overachievers Eibar are more than capable of grabbing a goal.

Barca have kept just one clean sheet in their run of six straight wins and while their visitors have struggled for goals of late, a wide-open game should present them with plenty of chances.

BetStars are also top price at 6/5 on the Barca win and both teams to score here, so I'll be pairing them up with Real in the same sub-market double at close to 5/1 and enjoying a goal-fest finale.
