The global betting company 1xBet tells about the great El Clasico, which will be held on April 5 at the Camp Nou stadium.
History
This season, the Clasico consists of five series, and Barcelona is ahead of Madrid in the number of victories. The Catalans were stronger in the Super Cup (3-1), La Liga (2-1), and in the Spanish Cup first leg (1-0). In the last cup match, Barcelona had an excellent result (an away win), but it was rather bland.
Real immediately identified who was the boss and even scored quickly, but Benzema’s goal was cancelled due to offside. Then came the antics of Vinicius, who constantly demanded more support from fans and laughed at the yellow card. In the end, Barça settled down: Ferran brought Kessié to the goal, Courtois managed the first shot, but Blaugranes helped Militao, who sent the ball into his own goal. As a result, Barça defeated the Meringues away for the first time in the last 4 years and moved the next stage of the showdown to Catalonia’s capital.
Real: go, saviors!
The Spanish Cup second semi-final match will be one of the decisive ones for head coach Carlo Ancelotti. There is practically no chance of winning La Liga, and in order to save the season, they need to win the King’s Cup and the Champions League.
Ancelotti also needs to decide on the choice of central defenders. Alaba and Nacho are in good shape, and there are Rüdiger and Militao. Mendy is ready to return to the left wing, which means that Nacho is unlikely to be put in this position.
The best news for Madrid is Benzema’s readiness. The Frenchman did not have to waste his energy on the French national team matches. He is fresh and self-confident, so with Vinicius and Modrić, he will try to turn the famous Magic Fountains of Barcelona into fountains of tears.

Barcelona: need treble
Xavi can order champagne – victory in La Liga is about to fall into their hands like a ripe orange. The team was eliminated from the Europa League and won the Super Cup, so now Barça will do everything possible to win the Spanish treble, and for this, they need the King’s Cup.
At one time, Xavi was considered the world’s best playmaker, but unlike most great players, he was well aware that the potential of the current Barcelona squad was limited. The team is going through a generational change and cannot smash the opponents and enchant the world in the glory days style. Therefore, the Blaugranes coach decided to play the football he could afford – not too spectacular, with reliable defence and, if necessary, a relatively small possession percentage. But great clubs are loved for victories, and Barcelona wins in Spain consistently.
The club’s leaders also deserve praise. This season, ter Stegen updated his clean sheets in La Liga personal record (500 minutes), Araujo became the defence leader (we believe Vinicius sees this guy in nightmares), Pedri and Gavi are the main midfield engines. Robert Lewandowski – the Spanish championship’s top scorer – looks great in attack. Another Catalans trump card is impressive efficiency in home matches – in 12 games of the current La Liga, they took 34 points.
What fans can expect
Barça won the first cup battle and will try to play at home the same football that brought them victory over Real in the last La Liga match – unhurried, with a high possession percentage and counting on the mistake of an impatient opponent. Madrid won’t like such a plan – the Meringues will try to score in the first half and make the opponent go into the attack with large forces. In any case, the reliable bookmaker 1xBet is sure we are in for a real gourmet football delicacy you cannot miss.
