The hosts are sitting seventh in the standings after eight matches, while Carlo Ancelotti's side have slipped off top spot after winning one point from their last two games.

Ronald Koeman will have the chance to prove he is the right coach to lead the Catalan giants after being very close to being fired after Barcelona’s defeat to Atlético Madrid before the international break.

Koeman wants to take revenge

He will also have the opportunity to improve his record against Los Blancos as a coach since the Dutchman beat Madrid when he was at Valencia but lost the two games against them last season in charge of Barcelona.

The Catalan giants seem to have found the path of victory, as they beat Valencia 3-1 in the last game of the domestic competition and defeated Dynamo Kyiv in a do-or-die match in the Champions League.

Koeman's side have struggled in the first matches of this campaign, as Lionel Messi’s departure to PSG has had an expected negative impact on the team, but if the hosts manage to win the Clásico, they will overtake Real Madrid and come back to the top spots in the table.

Meanwhile, the visitors had a great start to the season but suffered unexpected defeats to Espanyol and Sheriff Tiraspol before the international break.

Los Blancos could top the standings if they win

Now the 13-time Champions League winners, third in LaLiga with 17 points, three less than leaders Real Sociedad – who have played one more game – have bounced back by thrashing Shakhtar Donetsk 0-5, with Vinicius Junior and Karim Benzema in great shape.

The Basques will play against current champions Atlético Madrid a few hours after El Clásico, so Real Madrid could top the standings if they win at Camp Nou.

Before losing to Espanyol, Real Madrid were on an 18-game unbeaten run away from home in the Spanish league and have also strung together a three-game winning run in El Clásico.
