Real Madrid vs Barcelona Preview

Despite some early inconsistencies, Real Madrid remain unbeaten in La Liga this season, with seven wins and three draws from ten matches. Carlo Ancelotti’s squad will be keen to maintain their momentum.

Especially after last season’s double over Barcelona, including a 3-2 victory at the Bernabeu. Recently, Real Madrid overcame Celta Vigo 2-1 in the league and staged a thrilling 5-2 comeback against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League.

Barcelona, under Hansi Flick, have had an impressive start to the season despite injury setbacks, winning nine out of ten league games and leading La Liga’s scoring charts with 33 goals.

Fresh off a strong 5-1 league win over Sevilla and a dominant 4-1 Champions League triumph over Bayern Munich, Barcelona are in top form. Raphinha’s recent hat trick against Bayern highlights their attacking prowess as they approach El Clasico.
