El Classico Live Stream: Real Madrid vs. Barcelona Preview, Scores & Updates
Real Madrid and Barcelona will try to rejuvenate their Spanish Classico rivalry, as the two La Liga powerhouses look to snare a key win in the homestretch mark of the season on Saturday at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu.
Barcelona will try to overcome a four-point deficit behind Real Madrid and keep them in the thick of the fight for Spanish La Liga championship. On the other hand, the Los Blancos attempts to put the final nail in the coffin on Barca's championship aspiration, and move them closer to clinching the title.
Despite the magnitude of their upcoming battle with their bitter rivalry, Andres Iniesta want his teammates to stay calm and execute plays well amid an immense pressure on their shoulder.
"We should be thinking of us, rather than them," Iniesta told ESPN FC. "We have to be Barca, we have to be brave. If we aren't, then we will have a bad time of it. We have to play to win. When we've had that attitude, things have gone well for us.
"We can't settle for anything other than a win - that has to be our mentality from now to Sunday, with no doubts at all."
Meanwhile, Real Madrid is aiming for the kill on Saturday, as they plan to utilize an all-out offensive onslaught on Barcelona with their attacking player Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo, who is considered the best goal-scorer in the world.
"Above all we are an attacking team," said Xabi Alonso. "With the attacking players we have, we create chances and score with ease. Then we combine that with good balance, a solid defence and great goalkeepers. We try to make the best team possible."
"There are no secrets - Benzema, Bale and Ronaldo are good players, they understand each other well and they can change a game," he said. They score a lot of goals, create assists and for us, forming the line behind them, it is easier to play with that kind of footballer."
