Lewandowski will be in the starting XI against Real Madrid today, what could be better news for Barcelona. El Clásico is an honor match and if Barcelona had missed a star like Lewandowski, the result would not have gone in their favor and this match would have been very difficult for them. Lewandowski will be in the starting line-up, but Real Madrid's line-up looks considerably stronger than Barcelona's. Although this match is not a home match for Real Madrid, but this match definitely has a lot of potential for Real Madrid to do well. Before the start of the game I would like to put Real Madrid slightly ahead for this match and Real Madrid will definitely be one step ahead of Barcelona in terms of winning chances.

The duel from the strongest team in the la liga. This makes the situation even much better than before. You say right thing about it, barcelona has same odds compared to the reall madrid even though madrid will be playing away against barcelona.

That means if bookies are still distrusting the performance of barcelona. In fact, barcelona played at home and it was not even making bookies feel confident with the current squad. Missing lewandowski may also give a very big impact to the performance from the barcelona.
It appears that if barcelona will put felix or ferran as central striker while yamal is still playing as right winger. I can't even believe that if barcelona will able to win against madrid with the current conditions.

It seemed to me that if there will be a tough game for barcelona and real madrid at this moment. Im thinking about xavi will be doing out of the box thing.
Marc gulu was also out to play in the u 17 world cup.

I see the small chance owned by barcelona to win the current game.

There is enough evidence shown by Girona this season to prove that what they are experiencing is not a coincidence, this team is really very strong now and I see the game of the Girona team which I think is quite impressive apart from the narrow win they got but overall they it's been very good.
Girona just needs to maintain their consistency and I am sure they will be able to remain at the top of the standings until the end of the season even though it is very difficult to become champions, but being able to finish in the UCL zone is already very good for a team like Girona.

Girona are crazy and they will even continue to threaten the La Liga title race this season. A late win is also an extraordinary result and this will certainly make the Girona players even more enthusiastic in the next match. Currently, Girona is at the top of the standings and they will probably only hope that today's El Clasico match will end in a draw so that Girona can continue to keep their distance from Real Madrid and Barcelona.

It is very difficult to describe the performance of the Girona players so far and huge appreciation goes to coach Míchel who has turned this team into a monster that will try to bring down the tall buildings that have always housed Real Madrid and Barcelona. Apart from all that, I am very happy that finally this season's La Liga will be even more interesting with the presence of Girona.

I was watching the game of Girona vs Celta Vigo yesterday night and when I saw the first half I thought Girona would not win,in the second half chances for them started piling up a lot and they missed quite some goal chances,at the 80th minute I said to myself they are not going to win this when I saw in the 90th minute they did score a goal which is making this season for them looking really good.They are still following their dream to fight for La Liga and so far they are leading the standings while waiting for the Real and Barcelona game,let's not forget Atletico Madrid though as the team in the best recent form in this league,they both are fighting for the title which makes this a very interesting season.

The reason why I love to watch El-Classico is not far fetched from what you mentioned above. There's this sterling feeling you have like a sliver lining when you hear that it is going to be El-Classico. It gives you that morale and anticipation as well as high expectations from the team you play. I used to compare this competition with wheb I watched Wrestlemania between Undertaker and Brock Lesnar. It was not just about who won or lose but it was about the zeal both players put in to challenge themselves after building a successful career over time. The same thing applies to El-Classico and that's what Distinguished them from others.


Today is the day I have been waiting for since I got the announcement about the El-Classico. The last time both team met, it was in the club friendlies so I didn't expect it to be tough enough. Real Madrid is ready for this challenge, with a good squad depth that we are pretty sure will play at the pitch today.

Kepa, Bellingham, Carvajal, Rudiger, Alaba, Mendy or Camavinga, Valverde, Kroos, Tchouameni, Rodrigo and Vinicius are the possible first XI line-up squad for Real Madrid.

While, Luka Modric, Joselu, Nacho, Garcia amongst other players will be on the standby.

Dembele, Ferran Torres and Fermin Lopez will be fully charged today to score goals and possibly repeat what happened at the club friendlies or do more. Lewandowski will also want to net the ball today to add more hit to their rivals.

My assertions are that everything depends on the performance of the club managers because both clubs will be fully represented today with their full squad. The strategies of both club managers, Xavi and Ancelotti will determine the real performance and ability of the clubs to win.

I am happy to hear this news, because with the availability of this player, it will reduce the problem of Barcelona who have lost many players. But on the other hand I agree with you, will he really be in a very ready state after he returns from his injury? that is a question that can only be answered when seeing him play.
Actually if Barcelona insist on playing him when he's not really ready, then that's also a risk they take. I think Xavi will consider this as well as possible, and he will definitely make a wise decision.


It was a dramatic win for Girona in this match, and it was unlucky for Celta Vigo that they lost with only a few minutes left to play.
At first I was pretty confident it would be a draw for both clubs, as with less than 10 minutes left on the clock both clubs were yet to score. But the goal came in the 90+ minutes and made Girona successfully win the match with a thin score and also very dramatic.
This result makes Celta Vigo continue the negative trend and while Girona they can make a point gap from Real Madrid.

It has never been just about the players in El Clasico; prestige, history, and passion have always been at play. It's as if the athletes are bearing the collective burden of the entire fanbase when they take the field. I have had the privilege of observing numerous Clasicos, and each time it has been the determination and aspiration that truly distinguishes them. Concerning Real Madrid's injuries? While acknowledging the concern, it is crucial to not overlook the considerable depth and quality that they exhibit. Regarding Barcelona, although Xavi's methodology concerning junior players has been subject to criticism by several, I sincerely believe he may be onto something. It is a daring tactic, and he is the one who truly understands the essence of El Clasico. I, personally, am absolutely ecstatic and cannot wait to see the events develop

Yes, it's true what you said. no team wants to lose this big match. Barcelona are still in a positive trend, in their last five matches in the competition under Xavi who have never lost. They won four times and drew once, the four wins they won were only one goal apart. But Barcelona have good capital to beat Real Madrid, in three meetings in all competitions they always win matches. although in the El Clasico match there will be several players who cannot play and while the conditions of Robert Lewandowski, Frenkie De Jong, and Raphinha are still in doubt, but no one knows what Xavi will do for Barcelona who will face Real Madrid later.

Real Madrid are known to be a strong team this season because Bellingham, who is the top scorer for his team, is currently reportedly doubtful for Real Madrid because he reportedly limped when competing with Braga yesterday. This situation makes Bellingham doubtful that he can appear in the big El Clasico match later against Barcelona, if it is true that he is absent then this will be a loss for Real Madrid. But Ancelotti erased those doubts about Bellingham and made sure he could play and be ready to attack in the match later. Real Madrid themselves must win to get three points, because if they fail to get three points they will drop from the top of the standings.

It's good to hear that Lewandowski will play in this El Classico match because he is a striker that Barcelona can rely on, but maybe his fitness will still be questioned after some time without playing and whether he has fully recovered from his injury, but hopefully he is really in 100% condition to be able to contribute to this big competition.

Girona won against Celta Vigo as predicted but Celta Vigo seemed disappointed with the result because they almost got 1 point seeing Girona's goal after entering injury time. Girona controlled the ball but their shots on target were not many, even the same as Celta Vigo, only the away team couldn't maximize the opportunities they had.

None of two teams want to lose in El Classico but they will want to win the match even they do know wining one or two El Classico matches is not enough to win La Liga.

The big match is important for their match pride and also can help them to boost their player confidence on their ability. If they win an El Classico match, they will have good booster many matches after that as I believe positive effects from El Classico winning will last for a while.

Barcelona looks to have more players with good forms than Real Madrid at the moment. In theory, it makes them a stronger team in the coming El Classico but Real Madrid with their star players can wake up in this big match and beat Barcelona. I expect they will do it to help us having an interesting El Classico to watch and enjoy. This season can be a last season for Modric in Real Madrid and will he help them with a trivela pass or goal?

I think it will be better for Barcelona in the long run if they do not play him unless he is hundred percent fit. he is already reaching an old age. And if he does not recover completely from an injury, it will probably come back again pretty soon. But at the same time, Barcelona cannot afford to not play him to be honest.  It’s not like Barcelona has a lot of replacements in place. And Barcelona also cannot go into a match thinking that they are going to lose this match anyway so they should rest the players especially in a match like El Clásico. But Barcelona will be missing some important players anyway. It is going to be hard for Barcelona to win this match against Real Madrid.

Girona has bee able to resumes their winning streak from Celta yesterday that during the match Girona was dominate the game but Celta was displayed solid defense which makes Girona player looks difficult to threaten Celta defensive lines but everything was change when the match almost over because Herrera can appears and became an the hero of Girona and scored goal and this result make Girona collected 28 points

Finally El Classico will begin today that just like i said before Barcelona conditions doesn't really good because at least 5 key players from them will not be available including Lewandowski and without him Barcelona looks very difficult to win with big scores because there was no player who can able to replace Lewandowski on the team and for Real Madrid their condition was more good than Barcelona because at least the players just like Bellingham, Vinicius, or Rodrygo will be available today

This is interesting because the bookmakers provide equal odds to Barcelona and Real Madrid @2.55 and for this match considering Real Madrid condition was more good than Barcelona i think they will be able to overcomes Barcelona and collect 3 points from this match

It must be like that. It would be so stupid if girona would be losing against celta vigo. I meant let's talking about the stats owned by girona and the superiority is a must or it will be blamed by many of its fans caused by lose against worst club like celta vigo.
Girona is now leading the current standing above barcelona and real madrid. Barcelona will be also facing real madrid and there may probably a team between barcelona and real madrid that would be placed at the below girona soon.

Madrid will not let barcelona to win the el classico soon. I think that there is a chance for lewandowski to play but i think that will not make the result to be different. Real madrid just need to make sure it would be consistently defending against barcelona.
Barcelona was rarely playing with the long ball caused by it still uses the same tactic like when xavi was playing in that club. Madrid needs only parking bus to win the game easily against barcelona.
I dont so much how many scores made by madrid in this match. As long as madrid win and that's enough.

The match actually almost ended with a draw. But Girona was lucky that they could score a single goal in minute 90+1'. However, Girona deserved to win the match, they very dominated the match. I'm a bit surprised that Celta Vigo looks very weak against Girona. They only made 4 shots and only got 34% of the ball possessions. Girona was impressive to play at home today. They lead again the La Liga standings.

Lewandowski is available for El Clasico match. He must be among the players in the starting lineup today. So, you don't need to worry. Moreover, Barcelona has a good squad because they have many good players. They also play at home in this El Clasico. So, Barcelona actually isn't in a very bad situation. They have a chance to win for sure.

Of course, the El Clasico match will change their ranking in the standings table because if Real Madrid lose they will have to give up the top position of the standings to Barcelona and vice versa. (By the way. Girona took over the top of the table and I just checked.. I admit that El Clasico matches are always awaited by fans of both teams or football lovers. Because El Clasico matches are always quite fierce because the two teams both don't want to lose or are full of prestige in this match.

So overall, of course they have to work hard to achieve maximum results in this match. And var is always one that I hate because if the var referee is not careful they can make the wrong decision like the Tottenham vs Liverpool match where the var referee was negligent or wrong in his decision which resulted in the other team feeling at a disadvantage.

So in tomorrow's match I will see these two teams go down with the perfect squad so they can provide accurate balance in their game. And yes, Real Madrid is very dependent on Jude Bellingham this season and it's all because they don't have a better quality sticker to replace Benzema.

Girona are just playing really strongly when it comes to teamwork. This is their "magical formula" to be this much successful so far. There is nobody in the team who scores the most of the goals either. It is evenly divided between some midfielders and forwards pretty much. But I must admit that it was a really tough win today.

Girona played the second half much better. They just dominated the half and didn't give more than one chance to their opponent to go for a goal attempt. Even by this performance Girona barely scored in the first minute of the stoppage time. But they got what they wanted on a very critical week with an El Clasico.

Lucky for Girona because it is a game between the top favorite teams in Spain, so one of them must drop points tomorrow.

Barcelona can still win even without Lewandoski. Real Madrid look better because of the form of Jude Bellingham, but the kind of effect that he brings to Real Madrid is same thing Felix brings to the Barcelona team, so the game can be won by any of the two teams.

The Goalkeeper caught that ball and was hit slightly, the impact wasn't too hard but it was obvious to be seen. Good call by the referees and with the help of VAR!
Immediately that goal went in, the final whistle just went off immediately. Important three points for Girona the link up play was also great. What a fantastic strike as the ball hot the wood work into goal.

After the loss to Real Madrid, I never knew they would come up and continue consistently. Now they sit at the top with three points difference.
El Classico should be in favor of Barcelona or ending as a fulltime game with the scores even. That stats shows that they can not afford to lose only win and get to share points.

No doubt about the works that Xavi has done so far at Barcelona,how he has transformed the dying club to a very serious tittle contending club,that shows he really loves his boyhood club.They won the Lalliga tittle last season and are anticipating to win it this season,or better still win the champions league,and that is why he signed some experienced players like Ikay Gundogan to be in the heart of their midfield,and so far,they have being doing so well in their group.The group stage matches has returning leg,and they must win atleast one and draw one to be sure that they have qualified fully to the next round,and I'm sure they will do that,but I am not sure they have that strength to win the Champions league yet.They may get to semi finals,but I don't see them winning it.
