Carlo Ancelotti's men have breathing room at the top of the table, but nothing can derail a season quite like a defeat to your arch-rivals. There was late drama in the reverse fixture, as both Lucas Vazquez and Sergio Aguero scored in stoppage time in a 2-1 away victory for Los Blancos.
Barcelona were a club in crisis then but they come into this fixture on an 11-game unbeaten run, and with a new sponsorship deal with Spotify in their pocket. Hoping to hit the right notes will be Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Adama Traore, who have had a transformative impact on the club, and are new to El Clasico.
Karim Benzema and Vinícius Júnior, however, will fancy their chances against a defence that's prone to making major gaffs. It's the most glamorous fixture in football, so read on for how to watch El Clasico and get a Real Madrid vs Barcelona live stream from wherever you are.
