One of the biggest rivalries in world sport takes centre stage once again today as fierce rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid lock horns in the latest Clasico offering in LaLiga.
Both sides could really use a victory at Camp Nou, with mid-table Barca held by Sevilla and defeated by Getafe before thrashing Hungarian champions Ferencvaros 5-1 in their Champions League opener in midweek.
Europe's elite club competition offered no respite for reigning Spanish champions Real, however, with Zinedine Zidane's men stunned 3-2 at home by Shakhtar Donetsk four days after being bested on the same ground by newly-promoted Cadiz.
It would be fair to say that both managers are feeling the pressure ahead of what promises to be a spicy and important early-season Clasico.
