Barcelona vs Real Madrid Match Preview

Barcelona produced a thrilling comeback to earn a 2-1 win over Real Valladolid, keeping their four-point lead at the top intact. Their dominance at Estadio Olímpic Lluís Companys remains untouched, having maintained an unbeaten run there in 2025.

Los Blancos won the UEFA Super Cup back in August, but this will go down as a very disappointing campaign if they do not lift the La Liga title, having been knocked out in the quarter-finals of the Champions League by Arsenal before losing in the Copa del Rey final to Barcelona.

El Clasico fixtures have consistently delivered goals this season, and with both teams boasting dangerous attacking units, over 3.5 goals look like a smart play. Raphinha is enjoying a superb run in front of goal, and his scoring form makes him a prime candidate to get on the scoresheet again.
