Judging from the performance of both teams, we will all understand that Barcelona seems to be more consistent and organized than Real Madrid. Barcelona actually had won more matches and hard played more connected and good football than Real Madrid since this season. But this should not be the only basis for judging the outcome of the anticipated El Classico.
We should understand how fierced this will be considering that more is expected of Real Madrid after signing a world class super star. This is their first assignment to prove how ready they are to conquer this season.
Currently, Barcelona have better and consistent performance in this season than Real Madrid although not unbeaten yet but loss many points after being draw in three matches. Real Madrid remaining three points left from Barcelona on current standings position awhile and the el clasico match very crucial for both teams to secure their top standings position and Barcelona won't loss their opportunity with first standing place.
Before El Clasico match, both teams have busy schedule match after international break have one La Liga match and few days later will play in UEFA Champion League match. I think both manager between Hansi Flick and Carlo Ancelotti will make huge rotation for facing most important match because high intention both teams most important winning on El Clasico match than other match.
