Sunday’s action wrapped up the La Liga return from the November international break.
Athletic Club sealed derby bragging rights as they secured a 1-0 home win over Real Sociedad after Real Madrid’s 3-0 routine victory at Leganes.
Sevilla picked up a 1-0 win over ten man Rayo Vallecano and Villarreal continued their superb recent form with a late 2-2 draw at Osasuna.
Osasuna 2-2 Villarreal
Villarreal stay in fourth spot in the table after securing a draw in added time at Osasuna with just one defeat in their last seven league games.
Despite the final result, the Yellow Submarine were forced to battle in Pamplona, as Ante Budimir’s double put the hosts 2-0 up inside the first 20 minutes.

Rayo’s task was made almost impossible following Unai Lopez’s red card just before the break. Chances at both ends failed to yield a second goal as the sides remain separated by two points in mid-table.
Athletic Club 1-0 Real Sociedad
Athletic Club picked up their fourth successive league win on home soil in Bilbao against La Real thanks to Jungle Sancet’s early header at the Estadio San Mames.

The visitors response never materialised in the second half, as the home side eased on to victory, to move on up to fifth on their comeback to league matters in the Basque Country.
19 – No Spanish midfielder has scored more goals than Oihan Sancet in the Top 5 European Leagues since 2022/23 campaign (19 goals) and only Álex Baena (31) has been involved in more goals in this period than him (26, 19+7 assists). Opportunist #ATH???? #derbivasco pic.twitter.com/tqSv6JUKvy
