El Clasico gets its first run of this campaign on Saturday with Real Madrid hosting Barcelona at Santiago Bernabeu in La Liga. The Catalan giants lead the way and have been better than their capital rivals so far this term, but Carlo Ancelotti's men are only three points behind in second place which makes this a key encounter. Win and Real have made up ground on Barca which even a few weeks ago seemed unlikely given the fast start under Hansi Flick, but a draw or win for the visitors really gives them a strong title race advantage.

Los Blancos have won their last four meetings across all competitions which included a La Liga double last season with the Santiago Bernabeu meeting finishing 3-2 as part of an unbeaten home run against the Blaugrana which dates back to early 2022. Real beat Celta Vigo 3-2 last time out domestically while a 5-2 midweek thrashing of Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League has improved their continental standings situation. Kylian Mbappe remains difficult to bed in with the likes of Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior, but a win here would complete an encouraging early season recovery.
Barca have started life brilliantly under Flick with a 5-1 thrashing of Sevilla in La Liga followed by a 4-1 thumping of Bayern Munchen in the Champions League. The German could not have gotten off to a better start and with players returning from a major injury crisis, the Catalans should only get stronger. This is part of a derby doubleheader with Espanyol up next and the chance to open up a potential six-point lead over Real will be very appealing for the Blaugrana as they visit Madrid.
The first El Clasico of the 2024/25 season has all the potential to be a crucial one. While less than a third of the season has gone by, Barcelona currently hold a three-point lead on the table and have gained momentum in recent weeks. On the other side, Real Madrid have not completed a dominant performance for 90 minutes just yet, so losing this game and falling six points behind Barcelona could be catastrophic.
This will also be Mbappe’s first Clasico. Can he deliver against Barcelona’s high defensive line? Will Vazquez be enough to stop Raphinha?sadasdsad
