Real Madrid host Barcelona in the latest edition of El Clasico which kicks off at 8pm BST this evening. Carlo Ancelotti’s men, who will still be feeling the effects of their tantilising penalty shootout victory over Manchester City during the week, have an eight point lead in La Liga and a win tonight would all but guarantee them the title.
Madrid will welcome back Aurelien Tchouameni for their clash after he missed Wednesday’s Champions League win over City through suspension. Vinicius Jr and Dani Carvajal were substituted in extra-time against but should be fine to start.
Real Madrid: Unbeaten in 16 straight matches since being knocked out of the Copa Del Rey, Los Blancos are marching toward their second La Liga title in the last three seasons. Led by Jude Bellingham, Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior, there isn't much that has been able to stand in Real Madrid's way and Barcelona in this Clasico won't be any different.
How to watch and odds
Date: Sunday, April 21 | Time: 3 p.m. ET
Location: Estadio Santiago Bernabeu -- Madrid, Spain
TV: None | Live stream: ESPN+
Odds: Real Madrid - 120; Draw +220; Barcelona +300
Barcelona: Clasicos are a good time to measure team strength and this one couldn't be coming at a worse time for Barcelona. While they could pull off a victory in the match due to the team becoming healthier by the day, it also wouldn't mean much when it can't propel them to the title while Xavi's future is still up in the air. For Barcelona, it's a time to look for improvements from players as an eye begins to turn toward next season.
Real Madrid hold an eight-point lead over their arch-rivals at the top of the La Liga points table. Los Blancos come into the clash after ousting Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League this week after a dramatic penalty shootout.
Defending champions Barcelona, on the other hand, have struggled this season. They recently faced elimination from the Champions League quarter-finals at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain after losing the second leg 4-1 in Barcelona.
Mbappe knocking Barcelona out of the Champions League was already a poetic moment, full of foreshadowing of what could be coming if he denies Barcelona more silverware with Madrid. The gap between the two clubs hasn't been this drastic since the early 2000's and for fans around the world, hopefully, it isn't this wide for much longer.
Barcelona, in contrast, need to win at the Bernabeu to have any chance of catching Real at the top of the La Liga. The Catalan giants were knocked out of Europe at the hands of PSG on Tuesday and will hope to get themselves back in the title race.
Barca have Sergi Roberto and Andreas Christensen available again after they were both suspended in midweek though Ronald Araujo is likely to keep his place in defence despite his red card against PSG.
Things are better with stakes in a Clasico which is a beautiful rivalry showcasing the best of what world soccer has to offer. Gone are the days of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo squaring off as giants of the soccer world but to move things forward, Barcelona needs to figure out who their next era will be built around.
Barcelona’s head coach Xavi has already announced his decision to leave the club at the end of the season after a poor string of results earlier in the year. Since his announcement, however, the Catalans have been undefeated in their last 10 league matches.

How to watch the Real Madrid vs. Barcelona game online from anywhere using a VPN
If you find yourself unable to view the game locally, you may need a different way to watch the game -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
Real Madrid host Barcelona in the last Clasico of the 2023-24 season. Los Blancos have an eight-point lead in the table and hold a good opportunity to put the nail in the coffin and all but clinch the 2023-24 Liga title with a win. A draw would probably be enough for Ancelotti to at least make some rotations ahead of the Champions League Semifinals.
Real Madrid, on the other hand, are unbeaten in 25 La Liga matches since September. In fact, they have lost only one match - to neighbours Atletico Madrid - all season.
Real are missing David Alaba and Thibaut Courtois due to long-term injuries while the visitors will be without youngsters Alejandro Balde and Gavi.
Real Madrid were also victorious in the previous league meeting between the two sides at the Montjuic Stadium in Barcelona earlier this season. Jude Bellingham scored twice as Real Madrid won 2-1 away from home.
Barcelona will try to bounce back after a very disappointing loss against Paris Saint-Germain in the return leg of the Quarterfinals. They have been disjointed and heavily criticized this week, so they will likely play with courage and intensity trying to make a statement and cut Madrid’s lead down to five points, which would make the race for the title close and interesting going forward.
Predicted line-ups
Real Madrid XI: Lunin; Carvajal, Rudiger, Nacho, Mendy; Tchouameni, Camavinga, Kroos; Bellingham; Rodrygo, Vini Jr.
Barcelona XI: Ter Stegen; Kounde, Araujo, Cubarsi, Cancelo; Pedri, Gundogan, de Jong; Yamal, Lewandowski, Raphinha.
Barcelona fans woke up to dark grey skies in the city on Thursday morning.
After a couple of weeks of what felt like summer at the start of spring, temperatures dropped this past week and there’s been cloud and a little rain (much needed, given the Catalonia region is experiencing a drought).
The mini heatwave (up to 29C/84F was recorded) matched the soaring spirits of Barca fans who came back from Paris with the feeling of having fallen in love again, as it should be with any trip to the French capital.
