Oviedo survival hopes boosted by win at Celta

Real Oviedo climbed provisionally off the bottom of the LaLiga table with a 3-0 win at Celta Vigo on Sunday to give them hope they can avoid relegation.

The Asturian side secured their sixth win of the season and third from their last four matches to move within five points of safety. Levante, who dropped to 20th, host Getafe on Monday.

Alberto Reina opened the scoring for the visitors at Celta's Balaidos Stadium, with Federico Vinas adding a brace to secure three potentially vital points on the road.

Mallorca moved out of the relegation zone with a 3-0 win over Rayo Vallecano, with target man Vedat Muriqi netting twice.
