Real Madrid host Barcelona in one of the tensest La Liga title races in recent history, with just two points separating the sides heading into El Clasico.

Zinedine Zidane’s side have stuttered badly in recent weeks, winning just one of their last five matches in all competitions, including Wednesday’s Champions League defeat by Manchester City.

Barcelona are coming off the back of a disappointing draw at Napoli, but have won their last three league fixtures under Quique Setian, after an indifferent start to the manager’s reign.

The first meeting between the pair last December ended in a 0-0 draw at the Camp Nou.
