Sevilla top the table on the return from the short international break after a 1-0 victory over Valladolid, André Silva heading the only goal on the half hour mark. The Andalusians move ahead of Barcelona and Atlético Madrid, who drew 1-1 in the Metropolitan stadium, Dembélé saving a point for the Catalans in the last minute after Diego Costa had given the hosts the lead. The three teams immediately below them all lost though, Alavés 1-0 at Leganés, Real Madrid 3-0 at Eibar, and Espanyol 1-3 at home to Girona, Stuani scoring twice for the visitors early on, and Borja Iglesias getting one back for the locals (his seventh in as many games). Elsewhere Santi Mina got two for Valencia in a 3-0 win over Rayo, and Roger (Levante), Gerard Moreno (Villarreal), Lo Celso (Betis), and Maxi Gómez (Celta) were all on target for their respective sides.
