Barça against Real Madrid: a preview of the game

Today's Classic will be one of the latest, especially if we look at the position in the LaLiga division of the two clubs right now: joint points (35) at the head of the table, however Barcelona is a leader having a huge difference between a goal and a goal.

So, today anything can happen. If Barcelona wins, will open a 3-point gap compared to its top competitor, and will be closer to being a winter champion. On the other hand, if the winner is Real Madrid, the same will happen, with the intention of finding Barça at Camp Nou. The chance is to keep a tie that can leave things as true between the Blaugranas and the Europeans, although their LaLiga opponents, such as Sevilla, Getafe or Atlético de Madrid, can reduce distances and approach them dangerously.

Alignment: this will be the first ounces

As for the availability of players, Barcelona players have it significant damage to Dembelé and Arthur, both injured and in rehabilitation. As for Real Madrid players, they will not be able to count Marco Asensio, who suffered long-term injuries, not with Marcelo, James and Lucas Vázquez. They were added to the white hospital Eden Hazard, the star who signed for Real Madrid this season, is no longer able to play in his first Premier League game.

Knowing the injuries of both teams, these could be the lines of today's game according to Marca:

Barcelona: Ter Stege; Sergi Roberto, Piqué, Lenglet, Alba; Buses, Rakitic, De Jong; Griezmann, Suárez and Leo Messi.
Real Madrid: Courtois; Carvajal, Varane, Ramos, Mendy; Casemiro, Valverde, Kroos, Modric; Bale and Benzema.

As for the benches, Ernesto Valverde could have a withdrawal like that Ansu Fati or Carles Pérez, who have shown their best work in the games they have played this season, and the French coach will be with all the Brazilian youth. Vinicius and Rodrygo, is further integrated into the white discipline.

Previous results Previous

Looking back, we were staying for the last Classic on March 3 of this year, at the time at the Santiago Bernabéu, in league games where the Catalan club would eventually beat 0 to 1 for Rakitic's goal.

A few days before, the teams played past the Copa del Rey final last season. Even at the Bernabéu, FC Barcelona took a 0-to-3 defeat, excluding most of the time for the Solari players, confirming that they passed the final and eliminated Real Madrid, in the first leg He was able to tie 1 to 1 at Nou Field.

But without a doubt, one of Merengue's most disappointing results came in the first leg of last season's LaLiga match at Camp Nou. At that time, Ernesto Valverde's team, who did not have Leo Messi due to injury, was ranked 5th out of 1., ahead of the most frustrated Madrid in his position, with Julen Lopetegui on the bench as coach.

Therefore, The recent results between Barcelona and Real Madrid have favored the first, which seems to have meringues. We'll see what happens today, this time with Zidane in his second stint as the White House coach, which has left him with no mention of his entire visit to Camp Nou in front of Real Madrid.

Barça – Madrid and security: can the game be stopped?

The encounter between the two greats of Spanish football was preceded by historical fact, and nothing more than that its postponement. The game was scheduled to be played on October 26, but potential security problems have caused the RFEEF to postpone it. According to La Vanguardia, the reasons were 3, mainly:

Ensure the safety of players, referees and fans: CDRs have called for a larger demonstration that could affect safety during a match.

Avoid international imports caused by Catalan independence.
The game's benefits for both clubs: both Barça and Madrid had to play for the Channels in the same Classic week, so they had little time to prepare for the match.

Finally, and if everything goes as planned, The game will be played today Wednesday December 18 at 8:00 p.m. (Traditional Spanish time). Camp Nou and its surroundings are protected under the strict security measures of Mossos d & # 39; Esquadra with the aim of having the event take place normally.

As a curious note, both teams share a hotel before the game. Right now they are there staying at a Sofia hotel, about 500 meters from Camp Nou, and both will leave at the same time for the stadium, to be present at 6:00 pm, as the referee's team to lead the match. When teams and investigators arrive at the stadium, those in charge of the stadium will start opening the doors to welcome fans, so at 8pm all ready to start another great night of Spanish football.
