Real Madrid will host Barcelona in a match that promises strong emotions.\n\nReal Madrid arrives at this Cl\u00e1sico leading the LaLiga table with a perfect 18 points after six matchdays. Barcelona, the current champion, is in second place, with a pending match and will visit Real Oviedo on Thursday.\n\nLast season, Barcelona dominated the four Cl\u00e1sicos, an unprecedented achievement. The Catalan team prevailed in LaLiga on two occasions, in the Spanish Super Cup and in the Copa del Rey.\n\nHansi Flick&#8217;s team secured a resounding 4-0 victory at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u on October 26, 2024. Subsequently, they won the Super Cup final in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, with a score of 5-2.\n\nThe Copa del Rey final was a more disputed match, with a result of 3-2 in favor of Barcelona in Seville. The last Cl\u00e1sico of the season, played in Montjuic, also fell on the cul\u00e9 side with a score of 4-3, after Madrid took the lead.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a2.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0509%2Fr1490244_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Real Madrid&#039;s Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 and Barcelona&#039;s Lamine Yamal are two of the stars set to feature in the first Cl\u00e1sico of the season.\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\nBarcelona&#8217;s supremacy in the Cl\u00e1sicos allowed them to win a domestic treble last season, including LaLiga, the Copa del Rey, and the Supercopa. Real Madrid, on the other hand, finished the campaign without any major titles.\n\nThe next Cl\u00e1sico could feature seven of the top 30 players in the world according to the 2025 Ballon d&#8217;Or ranking: Lamine Yamal, Raphinha, Kylian Mbapp\u00e9, Pedri, Vin\u00edcius J\u00fanior, Robert Lewandowski, and Jude Bellingham.\n\nMbapp\u00e9 is currently LaLiga&#8217;s top scorer with five goals, closely followed by Ferran Torres from Bar\u00e7a, with four.\n\nThe October match will be the first Cl\u00e1sico as Real Madrid coach for Xabi Alonso, who took over the position this summer.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Classic Ignites: Real Madrid vs. Barcelona in Sight The first Cl\u00e1sico of the 2025-26 LaLiga season is just around the corner.
