Well that is all we have time on this La Liga live text. We're back with the final day of the Premier League season tomorrow but until then, goodbye.

Florentino Perez has a face of thunder in La Coruna. Meanwhile, in Granada those Barcelona fans in attendance have invaded the pitch meaning their celebrations have been curtailed somewhat. Fantastic achievement from Barcelona, who have overcome late season jitters to claim the title. They can make it a double in the Copa del Rey final next week.

As for Real Madrid they have the Champions League final to look forward to in two weeks time in Milan against Atletico Madrid, but they left themselves too much to do in the title race. Eleven straight wins wasn't enough for Zinedine Zidane's men, but they could yet end the campaign with silverware.

Full time at Granada and Barcelona are La Liga champions. Celebrations are well under way on the pitch with players bouncing up and down in unison.

Barcelona's players doing their best to rein in their celebrations behind Luis Enrique. The spraying of water bottles has already begun....

Goal: Granada 0-3 Barcelona (Luis Suarez)

Icing on the cake for Barcelona as Messi and Neymar combine and Suarez, for his 40th of the season, passes into an empty net. Let the celebrations begin.

Gareth Bale off and Jese on for Real Madrid, with Zidane have more than half an eye on the Champions League final in two weeks time. Less than a quarter of an hour remaining.

Having said that Deportivo should be back in the game as Navas makes a reaction save to keep out Pedro's header.

A real lack of competitiveness to both of these matches it must be said. Deportivo and Granada have threatened in dispatches, but there isn't much bite and snap to these matches where the results are all but a formality.

Neymar should make it three but Andres makes an impressive low save. Granada on the break almost threat a goal, but Cuenca and Penaranda can't break through.

Chance for Granada! Ter Stegen justifies his selection as as El Arabi plays in Fran Rico, but his effort from 18 yards is kept out. Barcelona fans breathe a huge sigh of relief.

Lucas Perez tests Keylor Navas, who has been a spectator for almost the whole of the opening 53 minutes, but he gets down to make a good low save to keep his clean sheet intact.

James straight into the action as he attempts, perhaps in vain, to play his way into Zidane's plans for the Champions League final. He cuts inside, operating from the right, and shoots but it is straight at Andres.

Teams back out at Granada and Deportivo. Barcelona just one half away from the title. Both games are back under way. One change for Real Madrid, with Cristiano off and James Rodriguez on.

Half time: Granada 0-2 Barcelona

Half time: Deportivo 0-2 Real Madrid

Barcelona are just 45 minutes away from their 24th league title after sweeping aside Granada in the first half. Luis Suarez has got both, to strengthen his grip on the La Liga golden boot.

Cristiano Ronaldo has netted twice himself to briefly give Real Madrid hope of staging a final day shock at Deportivo, but it looks like being a failed effort. Second halfs on the way, but it might be a procession for the Catalans.

Goal: Granada 0-2 Barcelona (Luis Suarez)

The title must be Barcelona's now. Dani Alves chases down a lost cause and Suarez catches out Andres and heads in at the near post. Barcelona's travelling fans go mad.

Now the crossbar denies Ronaldo his treble. Marcelo feeds him on the right-left position and he smashes the ball against the woodwork for the second time. He could have had four in this half. Remember he began the game four goals behind Suarez in the golden boot standings, with both players having netted once today already.

Ronaldo should have a 28-minute hat-trick here. He breaks in behind a woeful Deportivo off-side trap and slips the ball past Pletikosa, but hits the inside of the post. It matters little for Real Madrid, who need a favour from Granada, but this is a ice warm-up for the Champions League final.

Goal: Deportivo 0-2 Real Madrid (Cristiano Ronaldo)

Ronaldo continues to hunt down Luis Suarez in the golden boot standings with a second goal, though it is riddled with controversy. Arribas goes down as the corner comes in and as the referee ignores the incident that appears to involve Gareth Bale, Ronaldo steals in and via a huge deflection guides a header into the corner.

Goal: Granada 0-1 Barcelona (Luis Suarez)

Barcelona only need to get it right once and that, might be that. Alba and Neymar exchange passes and his low cross finds Suarez who slots into an empty net for his 38th league goal of the season. Barca on course to retain their title.

Yellow card for Busquets for a foul on El Arabi. Barcelona look a bit tetchy here and though Granada are not threatening in any way at the other end, this is far nervy a start than Enrique would have wanted. Real as it stands, with around 70 minutes left, heading for the title.

Real Madrid are really in the mood this afternoon and they should go two up as a Modric corner causes problems and Ramos somehow doesn't make contact from point blank range. Four players were queuing up to score there, but none could make contact.

Barcelona knocking on the door again here as Neymar breaks in behind Miguel Lopes, who turns the ball over his own crossbar. Pique heads goalwards from the corner and Andres makes an easy save. Not the start Granada will have wanted, as they are hemmed in.

Half a chance for Granada but Cuenca's shot is woefully wide. At the other end, Andres turns over Messi's right-footed shot over the bar. Routine save but another shot across the bowels.

Goal: Deportivo 0-1 Real Madrid (Cristiano Ronaldo)

Now then. Real Madrid take an early lead as Bale and Benzema combine and Ronaldo strokes home beyond Pletikosa to net his 50th goal of the season. as it stands, Real Madrid are top and heading for the title. Can Barcelona, who have started well, respond?

How are Barcelona not ahead? Mascherano flicks on a corner from the left and Pique rises highest but Andres somehow turns the ball away.

Granada have left the grass on the turf at the Nuevo, which has also been dried out to stifle Barcelona's passing game. How much of an impact with that have? Free-kick for Granada early on but Rochina finds the hands of Ter Stegen - who plays today ahead of Claudio Bravo.

A minute's silence is being held in A Coruna to remember those Real Madrid fans who died in Iraq on Friday before Deportivo and Real kick-off at the Riazor. Both games are now underway.

So can Real Madrid put any pressure on Barcelona? An early goal would certainly test the nerves in Luis Enrique's side, which remember saw them fall to three straight losses earlier in the campaign. Players out both at the Estadio Nuevo and Riazor ahead of kick-off.

One talking point which has dominated the build-up to these title deciders is talk of bonus payments being paid by Barcelona and Real Madrid to their rivals' opponents Granada and Deportivo in order to motivate them to win this afternoon - in matches which are essentially dead rubbers. Such payments are illegal but Spanish's football history with such conduct means it has to be considered a possibility. As many as 22 investigators are employed to keep tabs on such payments, which are also being monitored ahead of the relegation battle which takes place on Sunday.

Less than 20 minutes to go until kick-off so let's reiterate what is on the line today. A win for Barcelona sees them win their third title in four years. Anything less and Real Madrid can pounce with victory at Deportivo. Only a win for Zidane's side is good enough to put pressure on Barca.

I am reliably informed that despite this being the final day of the La Liga season and the title destined to be decided, the trophy will not be presented the the victorious side this afternoon. Believe it or not, only one La Liga trophy actually exists meaning a replica is not available. Both Barcelona and Real Madrid will have to wait to be officially crowned champions.

Around five weeks ago, it would have been unfathomable to think that the La Liga title would still be up for grabs on the final day. Barcelona were nine points clear and destined to stroll to the title amid questions over whether they were the best team of all time. How things have changed.

Defeat in El Clasico to Real Madrid sparked a rapid turn in fortunes and sparked a run of three successive league defeats, and an exit from the Champions League at the hands of Atletico Madrid. Diego Simeone's men went level on points with Barca with four games to go, while Real were a further point back.

Big wins over Deportivo and Gijon have followed for Barca, but Real have kept pace with them. Atletico slipped out of the title picture last weekend when they were beaten by bottom club Levante. And then there were two, but who will come out on top?

Teams:

Deportivo: Pletikosa; Manuel Pablo, Arribas, Sidnei, Navarro; Bergantiños, Mosquera, Cartabia Fayçal; Luis Alberto, Lucas Pérez

Real Madrid: Navas; Carvajal, Pepe, Ramos, Marcelo;Modric, Casemiro, Kroos; Bale; Benzema, Cristiano.

Teams:

Granada: Andrés; Miguel Lopes, Babín, R.Costa, Lombán; Ruben Pérez, Doucouré; Rochina, Peñaranda, Cuenca; El Arabi.

Barcelona: Ter Stegen, Piqué , Rakitic, Busquets, Alves, Iniesta, Suárez, Messi, Neymar, Mascherano, Alba.

Nice little stat to kick us off before we get into the meat of the build-up. Real Madrid have scored in each of their nine away league matches under Zinedine Zidane, scoring 20, and have won their last six on the bounce. Expect them to put pressure on Barca this afternoon.

We are expecting the team news any minute now, but how are Barcelona and Real Madrid expected to line-up in their respective games?

Despite having the Copa del Rey final on the horizon, Barcelona are not expected to leave anything to chance as they chase down the title. Claudio Bravo is expected to start ahead of Marc Andre Ter Stegen in goal.

Real Madrid have had a number of recent injury troubles, but they are set to be boosted by the return of several key players. Keylor Navas, Dani Carvajal, Pepe, Luka Modric and Gareth Bale are all likely to be available in a full-strength line-up for Zinedine Zidane. No thinking about the Champions League final in a fortnight's time.

Barcelona have arrived at the Estadio Nuevo, which is not an underrated bit of news given the recent events at Upton Park.

Unlike in the Premier League, where tomorrow sees all 20 sides play their last match simultaneously, La Liga split their games up depending on their relevance. Today's sees the title decided, while tomorrow sees matters the bottom settled with four teams battling to avoid joining Levante in dropping into the Spanish Segunda. There are just two games at 4pm today, involving out main two title protagonists.

The Premier League may not have served up any final day drama thanks to Leicester City's heroics, but our Spanish counterparts have a last weekend to savior in La Liga. Barcelona and Real Madrid go head-to-head for the title this afternoon, with both teams needing to win to get their hands on another domestic success. Barca travel to Granada while Deportivo host Real, with just one point separating the pair ahead of kick-off. We'll have team news and all the build-up on the way ahead of the 4pm kick-off.
