Is this Clásico must win or must not lose for Real Madrid? Well, many would argue that every Clásico is always must win. Right now, José Mourinho's team are six points adrift the champions, having lost both big away league matches they have played thus far, beaten at Real Betis and Atlético Madrid.
However, with Vinícius Júnior suspended, los Blancos have looked better in recent weeks. Mourinho's team have won four in a row coming into this clash in Catalonia, including back-to-back 4-1 wins over Sevilla and RB Leipzig.
Nevertheless, Barça are scoring goals for fun, and could become the first team in La Liga history to start a season with ten wins out of ten. Put succinctly, el Clásico is the biggest game in club football, so find out how to watch from wherever you are.
