Real Madrid struck five in a record-equalling victory against Granada, while Julian Draxler scored on his Paris debut and there were late wins for Arsenal and Napoli.

Real Madrid 5-0 Granada (Isco 12 31, Benzema 20, Ronaldo 27, Casemiro 58)
Madrid made it 39 games unbeaten in all competitions – equalling Barcelona's Spanish record, set last term – to cement their place at the Liga summit. The Merengues will look to reach 40 undefeated against Sevilla in the Copa del Rey on Thursday.
Napoli 2-1 Sampdoria (Gabbiadini 77, Tonelli 90+5; Hysaj og 30)
Lorenzo Tonelli's last-gasp effort – his first goal in almost a year – earned third-placed Napoli an unlikely win. Though the hosts fell behind, the dismissal of Sampdoria's Matías Silvestre just after the hour allowed them back into the game.
Preston 1-2 Arsenal (Robinson 7; Ramsey 46, Giroud 89)
Captain for the day, Olivier Giroud rescued the Gunners yet again by scoring for the fourth game running – three of those goals have come in the 86th minute or later – to take his team into the FA Cup fourth round at their second-tier opponents' expense.
Eibar 0-2 Atlético (Saúl Ñíguez 54, Griezmann 74)
Antoine Griezmann's first Liga goal since 2 October helped Atlético record their fourth win on the bounce in all competitions. Diego Simeone's men have conceded only once during that run.
Paris 7-0 Bastia (Thiago Silva 30, Rabiot 43, Nkunku 47, Thiago Motta 58, Lucas 63pen, Di María 77, Draxler 89)
Paris made light work of their Ligue 1 opponents in the French Cup last 64, scoring five or more unanswered goals for the second game running. Thiago Silva has struck in both those fixtures, having found the net just once in the previous 15 months, while January signing Julian Draxler opened his account on his debut.
