A second-half brace from Bojan Krkic ensured Barcelona eased past Almería and restored their six-point lead over second-placed Real Madrid.
The highly-rated youngster was handed a rare start up front and repaid coach Pep Guardiola with two clinical strikes early in the second half as Barcelona continued their recent good form.
Full-back Daniel Alves almost gave the visitors the lead after 26 minutes, but was just off target with a stinging angled drive.
The breakthrough came eight minutes into the second half when Andrés Iniesta found Lionel Messi and after the Argentinian's shot rebounded off the woodwork, Bojan was on hand to poke home from close-range.
And three minutes later the match appeared to be all but over when Barcelona went two up. Iniesta and Messi were involved again as the league leaders cut open the Almería defence, and Bojan was in the right place at the right time once more to fire past Diego Alves.
