Cañizares and Pinto opened a gap over the rest after both recorded clean sheets this weekend. Cañi's was his third in a row and Pinto's was his second, and they were joined by Leo Franco, Ricardo, Espanyol's Gorka and Real Sociedad's Riesgo, who has now only let in one goal in four games since Bakero took over as caretaker coach. Other than that there were three goalkeeping changes, with Ricardo returning for Osasuna in place of Elía, Viera coming back for Borbosa at Villarreal, and Doblas getting a run out for a few minutes for Betis after Contreras was sent off.
