duoMADRID, May 14 -- Neymar scored a hat-trick for FC Barcelona as the La Liga leaders won 4-1 in Las Palmas to ensure that the race for the title will go into the last weekend of the season.

Barca remain level on points with Real Madrid, but Madrid's 4-1 win at home to Sevilla means that if they take a point from their visit to Celta Vigo on Wednesday they will go to the top of the table and be favorites to be crowned champions next Sunday.

Barcelona had an early scare when Lucas Digne was lucky not to be shown a red card for bringing down Jese Rodriguez when Las Palmas looked to be clean through on goal, but goals from Neymar and Luis Suarez in the 25th and 27th minutes put Barca in the driver seat.

Pedro Bigas gave Las Palmas hope in the 63rd minute, but Neymar's second of the game just four minutes later made it 3-1 and his hat-trick with just under 20 minutes remaining sealed the win.

Real Madrid also fulfilled their part of the bargain with a 4-1 win at home to Sevilla. Nacho Fernandez opened the scoring with a quickly-taken free kick but Sevilla fought back and were unlucky to see Stefan Jovetic twice send shots against the woodwork.

Cristiano Ronaldo doubled Madrid's lead midway through the first half, but Jovetic then gave Sevilla (and Barca) hope four minutes after the break.

The game was in the balance for a while before Ronaldo netted his second in the 78th minute and Tony Kroos rounded off the victory with six minutes remaining.
