Kick-off is at 20h30
Barcelona have a chance to move ever closer to retaining their title when Celta Vigo arrive at the Camp Nou on Wednesday, April 22.
The Blaugrana are now firm favourites to lift the trophy next month after they saw arch-rivals Real Madrid trip up for the second game in succession.
Hansi Flick's side ran out comfortable 4-1 victors against neighbours Espanyol on April 11, having seen Los Blancos held to a 1-1 draw by Girona 24 hours earlier.
Barca have now opened up a nine-point gap to Real at the top of the table courtesy of their seventh straight win and 26th overall in La Liga this season.

The Sky Blues are locked in a fierce battle for the final two European places and they currently occupy the UEFA Conference League berth.
But Claudio Giraldez's side opened the door for Real Sociedad (7th) and Getafe (8th) to catch them after suffering a shock 3-0 defeat to rock-bottom Real Oviedo on April 12.
Real Betis, who are two points above them, also dropped points in a 1-1 draw with Osasuna, while Real Sociedad (7th) and Getafe (8th) failed to take advantage as well, drawing 3-3 with Alaves and losing 1-0 to Levante respectively.

Flick stressed the importance of keeping the momentum going against the Parakeets, but admitted they were made to work for their victory in the second half.
"It was all about the three points," the German said. "We controlled the first half, but lost a bit of control after the break. They scored and it became harder. The changes helped us to regain control."
Commenting on the big gap to Real, he added: "It's a very good lead, nine points. But for me, it's not finished. We have to do our job. Until it's decided, we have to show our best."
