This is the first game football fans look for when looking at the La Liga schedule at the start of each season
El Clasico is not only big in Spain, it is one of the biggest and most famous matches in the world
In the past we witnessed the usual fight between Guardiola and Mourinho, Messi and Ronaldo, and now it's Carlo Ancelotti against Hansi Flick
Carlo Ancelotti has already found his legacy in football. Brazil, at least, was ready to make the Italian their national manager
But Ancelotti's authority in Spain this season is being challenged by new Barcelona coach Hansi Flick
Barcelona are at the top of the league standings with 27 points in ten games
The Catalans have won nine and lost one. Furthermore, they have just beaten Bayern Munich 4-1 in the Champions League
The win came after a 5-1 win over Sevilla on Sunday. Barcelona look in good form and are set to present a serious challenge to Real on Saturday
Real Madrid has been rocking this season. Despite this, they are still unbeaten and occupy second place in the La Liga standings with 24 points.
Real have won seven and drawn three in La Liga this season. In the Champions League they have won two and lost one. In a good move they also beat Atalanta 2-0 to add the UEFA Super Cup to their already trophy-laden cupboard
But Madrid still do not look like they have found themselves this season. Their 5-2 win over Dortmund in the Champions League on Tuesday night was a perfect example
