Granada moved up to second in La Liga after Domingos Duarte's strike proved to be the difference when they opened Week 9 with a 1-0 win over 10-man Osasuna on Friday.
El Grana responded well after losing 4-2 at Real Madrid before the international break, getting back to winning ways and moving above Barcelona and Atletico Madrid thanks to Duarte's header.
Fran Merida came on for Osasuna with around 30 minutes remaining, but the midfielder received his marching orders for two quick-fire bookings in injury time.
Leaders Real Madrid won't be in action until Saturday when they travel to Mallorca, while Barcelona are also on the road in their visit to Eibar.
