Barcelona are set to play Real Madrid on Sunday night in La Liga at home as the season nears it’s conclusion. Both teams will be looking for a win.

Kick-off : 8:45 PM (Local)

Venue : Camp Nou, Barcelona

Barcelona will be riding high as they have won the La Liga this season. They won last Sunday after beating Deportivo with the help of a Messi hattrick away.

But Barca know their’s still a lot at stake as it’s the El Clasico plus their unbeaten run this term in La Liga. They know all about their arch rivals plus have the home advantage.

On the other hand, Real Madrid have the Champions League to look up to as winning it will make it a hattrick of tournament victories. They didn’t had one of their best seasons domestically.

Los Blancos have created controversy by saying that they will not give the guard of honour to Barca in the El Clasico. But they will certainly be eager to end their arch rival’s unbeaten run and have all the tools to do so.

Barcelona lead the head to head against Real Madrid by 112-99. Both teams have played out 59 draws.


Team news and possible line-ups

Dani Carvajal will not be available for Real Madrid for the weekend game as due to injury. While Raphael Varane is doubtful.

As for Barcelona, Andres Iniesta is expected to recover from a calf issue and feature in his last El Clasico.

Real Madrid XI : Navas, Vazquez, Nacho, Ramos, Marcelo, Kroos, Casemiro, Modric, Isco, Benzema, Ronaldo.

Barcelona XI : Ter Stegen, Roberto, Pique, Umtiti, Alba, Coutinho, Busquets, Rakitic, Iniesta, Suarez, Messi.

Prediction

It’s a tough call to choose between two of the biggest clubs in the world, may the best team on the night win. But if I were to choose one winner I will go for 2-1 to Barca.
