Sunday say Villarreal assure their grip on fourth place in the table and a place in the Champions League after a brave fightback to beat Getafe 2-1. Pedro Rios put Getafe ahead with a magnificent left foot shot after half an hour, but the home side turned things around in the second period.

Cani leveled the scores on the hour after a quickly taken free kick and Giuseppe Rossi's header 15 minutes from time gave Villarreal all three points, while dumping Getafe into the relegation zone.

Getafe owe their fall into the bottom three to Osasuna's 1-0 win over Valencia, which lift the side from Navarra out of the relegation zone. Alvaro Cejudo's goal gave Osasuna all three points, while leaving Valencia just three point ahead of Villarreal.

Almeria look assured of relegation following a 1-0 defeat at home to Sevilla. Renato gave Sevilla all three points after the home side were reduced to 10 men after Martin Jakobson was sent off for a tackle that saw Sevilla defender Martin Caceres taken to hospital with a broken rib.

Malaga left Hercules in deep trouble after a 3-1 triumph. Julio Cesar Baptista was again the hero after scoring twice, but Hercules are now in deep trouble five points from safety.

Racing Santander look safe after beating Mallorca 2-0- Markus Rosenberg and Kennery Bakircioglu scored in an incredibly simple win for the home side, while there was no surprise in Levante and Sporting Gijon drawing 0-0, a result which favored both sides.
