Real Madrid vs Barcelona
Spanish Primera Division, 22h00
This is a match-up that beats all rivalries on Earth. It is El Clasico and this only is expected to be the best one in history. These two teams are having a magnificent season. They are head to head, both with 77 points, 21 in front of 3rd placed Valencia. This is unprecedented.
It is expected as a Final and it should be, just for the fact that we will be entertained with the best players of the moment, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi. But also, with a lot of others world class footballers. It will be Casillas against Valdes, Xabi Alonso against Xavi, Ramos versus Pedro, Higuain against Pique, Van der Vaart versus Yaya Toure, Marcelo against Dani Alves and the list can continue.
Real Madrid has one goal advantage in the standings which is nothing. But the people around football claim this is arguably the hottest Real Madrid side ever when it comes to stats. Though it is not in everybody's eyes because of this formidable Barcelona team or Pep Team how it is called. The Catalans won the first leg by 1-0 and it is revenge time for the Merengues tonight. The Whites are also out of the UCL which was a huge blow, having in mind that the Final will be played in the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. Barcelona will play Mourinho's Inter in the Semifinal stage.
Real Madrid are without Pepe and Kaka, while Barcelona have Abidal and Ibrahimovic on the sidelines for the most anticipated game of the Spring.
I tip Real Madrid to win it, at 3/2.
