Barcelona, second with 24 points, will host Real Madrid tomorrow, one of the leaders of the Spanish soccer LaLiga, for the 11th. date of the contest, in a new edition of the most important classic in the world.
The match will be played starting at 11:15 a.m. (Argentine time) with a broadcast by ESPN, at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium in Montjuic, where Barcelona plays at home while renovations are being carried out at the Camp Nou.
Looking ahead to the game, coach Xavi Hernández gave a press conference after the training session held this morning, where five of the team’s six injured players could be seen practicing alongside their teammates.
These are the French defender Jules Koundé, the midfielders Pedri and the Dutch Frenkie de Jong, and the Brazilian attacker Raphinha, about whom Xavi commented to the local press that he was surprised by their commitment and that “if they are 100%,” he has no problem in which they play.
For his part, the Polish scorer Robert Lewandowski, another of the questions for the classic, is recovered and is likely to start, although the 43-year-old coach preferred not to reveal details of the formation.
On the other hand, Real Madrid, leader of the tournament along with Girona, only accumulates the losses of Belgian goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and Brazilian defender Éder Militão, both with torn cruciate ligaments, so they are ruled out for the remainder of the year.
It will be classic number 254 in history, where the Catalans accumulate 100 victories, the Madrid 102 and tied 52 times.
In addition, Girona, the other surprising leader of the league, will begin the 11th today. day when they host Celta de Vigo, starting at 4:00 p.m.
