Neymar is such a huge miss. He just owned Carvajal almost every time they've met.
Hard game to call this. Real haven't really swashbuckled so much this season, but seem to be able to just get the job done week after week. Barca meanwhile seem to blow very hot or very cold, exemplified by the way they went from meek surrender in France to a historic win. Which means that any result seems possible, from a dominant handsome home win to a hatful of goals for Barca. If i were a betting man though Id go for a home win by the odd goal in three.
Bale starts for Madrid.
Not so sure about that, stinks of Perez sticking his nose in but hopefully he's fully fit.

Hopefully we'll see some quality football in the Clasico. Arsenal-City was a bit shit.
The feck?
The amount of goals he scores for Atletico that either are the first goal (opening the can as we say in Spain), put them ahead or even single-handedly wins/draws them the game.
He doesn't score at the rate of Messi, Suarez or Ronado because Atletico doesn't have the same gunpowder as Real and Barcelona, so I'd say Griezmann goals are more important for his team than those other 3 guys
Damn, no goals in six Clasico's for Messi. Time to step (back) up.
Tried to post a photo of this;
Very poor and barely any quarter final UCL goals either.
Similar stats are used in basketball.
Sergio busquits looks like a 70's adult film 'star'.
Sergio! 
Which one?
I'm reminded of the last few Clasicos of the Rjikaard era.
"The world is Real"
Wow, what a clever banner.

Looked a pen on 1st viewing.
Agreed.
That should have been a penalty.
Looked a penalty to me.
Ref has laid down the line now.
It's a pity Neymar isn't playing
Yeah that was a penalty.
Looked a pen
I don't know many 70's porn stars really.
Penalty (should have been)
Barca gets away with a penalty
Madrid looking sharp so far . Ronaldo should have had a pen
Ramos range of passing though!
Real have come out all gun blazing.
Yeah it's a great start from Madrid so far. What are people's thoughts on that pen incident?
Holy feck Real look up for it!
After rulebook it was a foul, so a pen. In the PL probably 50/50.
It depends on the refereeing style. Now he has to go through, and assess the situations on the other side in a similar manner.
Real compeletely overrunning Barcelona. Beautiful to see so far
they look possessed. Great start from them
So, in the 'penalties that should have gone against barca' tally, we are at 1 already.
Ref and linesman haven't done a good job so far
Casemiro would be absolutely perfect behind Herrera and Pogba.
My commentator just mentioned that Ronaldo is yet to score a goal against Barca from open play in La Liga, only in the cups. Pretty ridiculous if true, considering the amount of goals he has in Classicos.
Not just on the other side, for the rest of the game in general. Ref basically said by not blowing the whistle that small touches like that are allowed. I prefer that they tow that kind of line, will make for a better match.
