The eagerly awaited El Classico is coming to enthral football enthusiasts across the globe. In the blockbuster La Liga clash, Barcelona will cross swords against Real Madrid at their home. The match is slated to be hosted on March 20 at Camp Nou.
As per the present scenario, Barcelona sit comfortably at the top of the La Liga table with 65 points in 25 matches. They are now 9 points clear of Real Madrid, who are reeling in the second place. A victory in favour of Barcelona will end Los Blancos’ title dream this season. So, it will be a great opportunity for the Blaugrana to wrap up their first Spanish top-flight crown in four years by defeating their arch-rivals in front of the home crowd.
The last El Classico saw Barcelona emerging victorious in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final as they beat Real Madrid 1-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu. Apart from reducing the points gap in the league, Carlos Ancelotti will also eye for sweet revenge as this rivalry has always been beyond the scoreline.
In their earlier league game, Barcelona edged past Athletic Club, winning the away fixture 1-0. Meanwhile, Madrid hammered Espanyol in their last La Liga appearance before getting the better of Liverpool in the second leg of the Champions League Round of 16 tie at home.
Barcelona can bag their 100th El Clasico victory – and perhaps their 27th LaLiga trophy – by beating Real Madrid on Sunday night.
This weekend’s derby comes at a key moment in the title race with the Blaugrana a hefty nine points clear as the business end of the season draws closer.
Madrid may be into the quarter-finals of the Champions League but, despite defeating Barcelona back at the Bernabeu, they have lost two Clasico contests since in the Supercopa de Espana final and Copa del Rey semi-final first leg.
