Leading Real Madrid narrowly defeated Granada 2-1 to achieve their ninth consecutive victory in the Spanish Primera Liga on Monday and are on the cusp of crowning the title.
Zinedine Zidane's team regained the four points difference with second-placed Barcelona, the defending champions.
Real Madrid will secure their first title since 2017 if they beat Villarreal next Thursday or if they beat Leganes in the last round.
Real captain Sergio Ramos said, "We are really close to one step, but progress must be continued and more points must still be won and we will try to win every remaining match because this is our constant goal."
"I really hope we celebrate the victory in this league. Our results speak for themselves. ”
Really looked great and French defender Verlan Mende made the first goal after he penetrated into the penalty area and fired a massive shot from a narrow angle in the tenth minute to shake the net for the first time with his club.
Karim Benzema, Real Madrid's top scorer, added the second goal with a perfect shot from close range in the 16th minute, raising his score to 19 goals in the league this season, but Granada, who has a weak chance of qualifying for the European League, refused to surrender.
Real Madrid's goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois saved a chance from defender Domingos Duarte before the break while Venezuelan striker Darwin Machece narrowed the lead early in the second half after a mistake by Casemiro.
This was the first goal to enter Real in six games, but Granada was dangerous and striker Antoninen fired a powerful ball towards the end, saved by Courtois.
Ramos was very effective in removing Ramon Aziz's shot from the goal line in the last moments, so that Real Madrid would come out with a valuable victory. St
