In my case, I think Real Madrid are the favourites. Barcelona have made a very big gamble, mortgaging part of their future and this puts extra pressure on them, which will affect them if they start to have mediocre results.

There are a couple of games left before the Clasico. If Madrid, in these two matchdays, gain a few more points over Barcelona, they will have home advantage in the Clasico, and they can take advantage of that to start to get some serious distance.
