"El Clasico" ignites world football. Barcelona and Real compete for

Tonight in Spain, perhaps the hottest "El Clasico" will be played in recent years. In addition to the race for the championship title, Real Madrid has added fuel to the fire by demanding the punishment of Barcelona due to the scandal that broke out in Catalonia.

A win at home would mean Barcelona can go into the international break comfortably, as they would be 12 points clear of Real Madrid with 12 weeks to go. Meanwhile, this challenge also applies to technician Xavi, as he will try to become the 28th coach of the club that wins "El Clasico".

The Barcelona team will wear a special shirt in this duel "Rosalia el Casico" to send to another level the thanks of the Spanish club for the Catalan singer, Rosalia, whose album is an international hit.

Barcelona are unbeaten in the championship in the last 12 challenges, increasing the chances of a victory. This could also be the last derby for many footballers, including captain Sergio Busquets at the end of his contract with Barcelona.

On the other hand, Real Madrid wants to keep alive the hopes of defending the title. Carlo Ancelotti is very close to history. The Italian is expected to become the fifth coach of the Royals to win at least four "El Clasico" in La Liga.
