The biggest game of the season in La Liga is taking place this weekend with Barcelona hosting Real Madrid in El Clásico, reigniting one of the fiercest rivalries in the sport in a match where the stakes are sky-high.

It has been a strange season for Real Madrid but, despite crashing out of the Champions League quarter-finals to Arsenal and losing the Copa del Rey final to Barcelona, they are still in with a chance of winning La Liga.

Carlo Ancelotti will be forced to name a makeshift Real Madrid defence for their El Clasico showdown with Barcelona. Los Blancos know they are losing grip on their LaLiga crown. Trailing their bitter rivals by four points with four games to play, nothing but a win will realistically keep the title race alive.
