Barcelona have moved to within two points of La Liga leaders Real Madrid after recording a 5-0 victory over Las Palmas in Saturday afternoon's entertaining contest at Camp Nou.

A brace from Luis Suarez and one each from Lionel Messi, Arda Turan and Aleix Vidal secured a comfortable win for the Catalan giants, who have closed the gap on their bitter rivals to just two points, but Luis Enrique's side have now played two more games than the unbeaten league leaders.

Head coach Quique Setien recalled his big guns, including Jonathan Viera and Kevin-Prince Boateng, following their 3-2 success over Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey during the week, but that couldn't stop them from defeat.

Las Palmas' midfielder K.P Boateng went closest with an over-head kick for the away side in the game and was the only threat to Barcelona but the Ghanaian forward didn't have great service.

Boateng played the entire duration of the game and received a yellow card in the 55th minute.
