Real Madrid vs Barcelona prediction
This should prove to be a fascinating Clasic meeting as both sides come into the affair somewhat depleted.
Barcelona are without some of their best players and their manager has a touchline ban, but Real are also far from perfect. They may be on a four-match winning run, but their performances have not all been convincing.
Real’s 5-1 loss to Atletico last month will serve as a blueprint for Barcelona, who have remained free-scoring despite missing Lewandowski. The Balugrana’s depth and form should see them through this derby.
