Barcelona come into the game after a dramatic win over Real Madrid in El Clasico, where Messi scored late on to secure a 3-2 victory.

The result put Barca top, level on points with Real but ahead on the head-to-head record.

However Madrid have a game in hand which means even if Barcelona win all of their remaining games they won't necessarily be crowned champions.

TEAMS:

Barcelona - Ter Stegen; Mascherano, Piqué, Busquets, Digne; Rakitic, Gomes, Denis Suarez; Messi, Turan, Alcácer.

Osasuna - Sirigu, Bunuel, Oier, Fuentes, Steven, Mérida, Tienza, Jaime, R.Torres, De las Cuevas, Sergio León
