» Match report: Madrid seal La Liga title with win over Malaga
A Spanish league win for Barcelona would be their third in a row, and 25th overall.
Barcelona had an inconsistent start to the season, but are currently riding a six-match winning streak, the best of the entire competition so far.
But it could be the case of too little too late for them, as Real Madrid need just one point to win the title.
Considering their Champions League run came to a disappointing end with a 3-nil aggregate loss to Juventus in the quarter-finals, they will be desperate to ensure that if Real Madrid slip, they can clinch the title.
Barcelona have won their past five games against Eibar, scoring 16 and conceding just once.
However Eibar are improving season by season, and already have more points this season than last year and their introduction year in 2014/15.
Barcelona need four more goals to reach 116 for the season, beating their all-time record.
The last two times they played Eibar, they won both games 4-nil.
Eibar are coming off two straight losses, but a shock win for them would see them catapult to an eighth-spot finish.
Prediction
Barcelona have found their form in recent weeks, but it would take a miracle for them to win the title even with a win. Still, expect them to play their part, and break an already impressive record in the process.
Barcelona 5 – 0 Eibar
