MADRID, April 1 -- There is hardly time for teams to draw breath and to recover tired limbs before the 30th round of matches kicks off on Tuesday in Spain's Liga Santander.

Matchday 30 is spread over three days with league leaders FC Barcelona and second place Atletico Madrid both playing on Tuesday, while Real Madrid are not back into action until Wednesday.

Tuesday sees Barcelona travel to play fourth from bottom Villarreal following their 2-0 win at home to local rivals Espanyol on Saturday night.

Coach Ernesto Valverde will make some changes to the Barca starting 11 with Ousmane Dembele and Samuel Umtiti likely to come into the side and there is a chance Valverde could rest other players such as Sergio Busquets and even Leo Messi with an eye on next weekend's decisive clash against Atletico Madrid in the Camp Nou.

Villarreal had been improving, but suffered a major setback on Saturday when they surrendered a 2-0 lead away to Celta Vigo to lose 3-2 to a direct rival in the battle to avoid relegation.

Atletico are the first team in action on Tuesday when they entertain Girona, who knocked them out of the Copa del Rey earlier in the season.

Diego Simeone's side will be without Diego Costa, who suffered a muscle injury in the first half of their impressive 4-0 win away to Alaves on Saturday.

Atletico will look to Antoine Griezmann to get back among the goals after seven games without hitting the back of the net.

Wednesday's third game sees Espanyol entertain fourth place Getafe. Wu Lei is likely to be back in the Espanyol starting 11 after only playing 25 minutes as a second half substitute on Saturday, but he will have a tough evening against one of the best organized sides in La Liga.

Getafe travel to Barcelona in fourth place in the table but needing to bounce back after a surprise 2-0 home defeat to local rivals, Leganes at the weekend.
