The win extended Barca's unbeaten run on the road to five matches having registered two draws and three wins away from their home ground, Camp Nou.
 
Luis Suarez, the Barcelona striker, has urged his teammates to focus on winning their last two games against Osasuna and Alaves.
 
"Now, for our pride and for the prestige of Barca," Suarez said on Mundo Deportivo.
 
"We have to win the two remaining games and then focus squarely on the only title we can fight for, which is the Champions League.
 
"If those of us on the team can perform at the level of why we are in this club, we can beat anyone."
 
The last meeting between Alaves and Barcelona in a league encounter was on 21 December 2019.
