Highlights | Real Madrid Vs Barcelona.

Bitter rivals Real Madrid and FC Barcelona met at the Bernabeu on Saturday for a La Liga installment of El Clasico which could help decide where the Spanish top flight title ends up come May.

While Los Blancos are the reigning champions after clinching a record-extending 36th crown earlier this year, the Catalans are currently top of the table with a three-point advantage over the club from the capital.

Both teams come into the fixture with big wins over two of Germany’s biggest outifts, but the contexts of those victories are different.

While Real Madrid beat their 2023/2024 Champions League final opponents Borussia Dortmund 5-2 at the same ground, that victory came after lacking intensity and going 2-0 down in the first half ahead of a Vinicius Jr. second half hat trick helping grab three points.

Over in Catalonia, Barca was on the back foot against its “bogeyman” in Europe Bayern Munich after Raphinha scored in the opening minute and Harry Kane equalized.

After a shaky 20-25 minute spell, however, captain Raphinha and Lewandowski both netted ahead of the Brazilian completing his own hat trick and taking home the MVP award in an eventual 4-1 riot.

Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti said he is not losing sleep over Barca, though he will go into the match with two key absences in goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and Rodrygo.
