Valencia have moved to within four points of second place Barcelona with a 2-0 win at home to Malaga.
The hosts went in 1-0 up at the break after Roberto Soldado rounded goalkeeper Willy Caballero to score his 10th league goal of the season.
The in-form striker bagged his second of the match on the hour when he volleyed in Jordi Alba's cross.
While Valencia keep up the pressure at the top of the table, Malaga remain seventh.
