Barcelona - Getafe 0:1

It wasn't easy without the suspended Robert Lewandowski and Fran Torres, but Barcelona kept the top and home.

Only one goal was conceded this season by Marc-Andre ter Stegen in the league games at Camp Nou, and this time too he was there to save the Catalans on at least two occasions.

The front part was far from brilliant and Anso Fati didn't take advantage of the chance he got on the edge, but Rafinha's preparation for Pedri in the 35th minute made the difference for Xavi.

Barcelona celebrated at the opening with their fans, when Sergio Busquets presented the Super Cup won by the team in Saudi Arabia after the convincing victory in the final against Real Madrid.

The captain also won a framed shirt on the occasion of his 700th appearance which was in the Super Cup semi-final against Betis, when his children took to the pitch with him.

Getafe can feel frustrated and will continue to wait for their first ever win at Camp Nou.

Athletic Bilbao - Real Madrid 1:0 (1st half)

The loss to Villarreal in the league and the 3:1 loss in the Super Cup final against Barcelona only obscured the crisis that the Blancos have been going through in recent times.

The upheaval on the yellow submarine in the Copa del Rey improved the mood in Carlo Ancelotti's team, but the Spanish and European champions still expect much more.

Still without the injured David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, Lucas Vasquez and Orleans Tschoumani, Real Madrid deployed Nacho at right back.

Dani Sabaios and Marco Asensio, who led the change in the cup, earned their place in the squad.

Toni Kroos and Luka Modric on the bench along with Rodrigo who was reprimanded on the fifth.

On the other hand, in Bilbao, which started the season great, they are still licking their wounds after the difficult 3:1 loss in the derby to Real Sociedad, and the victory over Espanyol in the King's Cup lifted the mood a little for the Basques.

The last meeting between the teams ended with the victory of Athletic Bilbao 0:1 in the cup, but in the league they have not beaten Real since March 2015.

Villarreal - Girona 0:1

A game that was on its way to 0:0, ended up providing great drama in extra time.

In the 94th minute, with Girona down to 10 men following the sending-off of Santiago Bueno (79), goalkeeper Paulo Gaszaniga continued his excellent performance and saved a bad penalty from Gerard Moreno, but Pau Torres squeezed a rather dubious second penalty and Dani Parejo sent Same for connections in the 101st minute.

Villarreal is in fifth place, after gaining 13 points from the last 15.

Girona stopped after six games without a loss.

Elche: Jose Angel Carmona (67).

For Osasuna: Chimi Avila (20)
