Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola has called for his side to improve their recent form after falling behind Real Madrid in the La Liga title race.

Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola has said his side must improve if they are to compete with Real Madrid for the La Liga title.

The Catalan giants' surprise 1-0 loss at Getafe on Saturday left them six points adrift of Jose Mourinho's side with thirteen games played.

Guardiola has acknowledged the strength of the current Madrid team and has called for his players to raise their game.

"We know that Real Madrid are very strong and we know we'll have to lift our game or we won't get there," he said.

Barca host Rayo Vallecano tomorrow night before travelling to Levante ahead of the first El Clasico of the season on December 10.
