MADRID, Sept. 18 -- There is no time to take breath as the Spanish Liga Santander moves seamlessly from Matchday 4 into Matchday 5 with a round of midweek fixtures.

Sunday sees two games as Valencia look to continue their unbeaten start to the season at the expense of Malaga, who have lost their opening four matches.

Malaga coach Michel Gonzalez will no doubt have noted how Alaves sacked coach Luis Zubeldia after losing their opening four games of the season, but will take some heart from his side's much improved display as they were narrowly beaten by Atletico Madrid on Saturday.

Barcelona also play on Tuesday and Ernesto Valverde will possibly think about resting some players as his side entertain Eibar in the Camp Nou. He will have to make one change after the hamstring injury suffered by Ousmane Dembele and Gerard Deulofeu looks the most likely to replace the club's record signing.

Elsewhere Nelson Semedo could return at right back with Sergi Roberto pushed into midfield, while Paulinho, fresh from his goal in Getafe, could also start.

Cristiano Ronaldo makes his league debut for Real Madrid after completing his suspension as his side face Betis in the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. Tony Kroos has recovered after missing out at the weekend, but Mateo Kovacic is still injured along with Karim Benzema, Jesus Vallejo and Theo Hernandez, who will be replaced by Marcelo.

Betis did well to defeat Deportivo la Coruna on Saturday, but their open style of play will leave them vulnerable on the break to Madrid.
