REAL MADRID vs FC BARCELONA: MATCH PREVIEWBarcelona kept up their La Liga challenge with a 4-2 home win over Real Betis on Sunday as Madrid came from behind to win 2-1 at Real Mallorca the previous evening.
Now, Madrid are five points clear of Barca in the Primera Division and boast a healthy advantage going into the second half of the competition, but they were clearly second best as Pep Guardiola's side claimed a 3-1 victory at the Bernabeu on December 10.
After the loss suffered last December against FC Barcelona, it has been proven that the best possible formation to play against Barcelona is a 4-3-3 with a high-pressure system in the middle. This is exactly the same formation Real Madrid played in the last Copa del Rey Final that saw Mourinho's team earning a deserved win in overtime with a late goal by Cristiano Ronaldo.

To get to this stage of Copa del rey, Real faced at first the team of Ponferradina crushed with aggregate score 7-1, but faced a lot of difficulties against Malaga hardly winning game #1 with 3:2 and game #2 with just 1:0. To get to this stage Barça faced L’Hospitalet crushing them with aggregate score 10-0 and Osasuna with aggregate 6-1, so basically without any real problems.
The current shape of Real Madrid seems better than this on Barcelona but the hosts only three victories for Real Madrid in the last head to head 13 games, four draw games and 6 losses, four of which came in the last 6 games.
Real Madrid defender Alvaro Arbeloa will sit out of Wednesday's Copa del Rey Clasico against Barcelona after the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) rejected the club's appeal while Angel Di Maria will be ready to feature against Barcelona
Three of the last four meetings between the teams in Madrid have seen the teams go into the half time break all square. It would have been four from four had Messi not given Barca a 2-1 lead on the stroke of half time in the Super Cup meeting at the start of this season.
REAL MADRID vs FC BARCELONA: PROBABLE LINEUPSReal Madrid (4-3-3): Casillas; Sergio Ramos-Pepe-Varane-Coentrao; Xabi Alonso-Khedira-Diarra; Di Maria-Ronaldo-Benzema.
Barcelona (4-3-3): Pinto; Alves-Pique-Puyol-Abidal; Xavi-Busquets-Iniesta; Messi-Fabregas-Sanchez
