1. Current Forms

Both teams are in opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to recent forms.

The hosts are winless in three of their last four matches, and were outplayed by Real Sociedad side last weekend. Meanwhile the visitors from Madrid are undefeated in last 32 games under Zinedine Zidane, with their last loss occurring all the way back in April.

They are also the only side in Europe’s top five leagues to stay undefeated this season, while Barcelona already suffered three losses.

Real Madrid also went to a very tough Vicente Calderon and scored three past an arguably the best defensive side in Europe, Atletico Madrid. The players are in top form and with their confidence also at its peak, it will be hard for Barcelona to knock them down their throne.
