Real Madrid will clash with Barcelona in an El Clasico clash of interesting proportions during the Copa del Rey semifinal first leg at the Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid on March 3. The LaLiga leaders Barcelona will need to be in their best form against defending champions Real Madrid, and all eyes will be on this all-important clash.
The Catalans travel to the Santiago Bernabeu one day after Osasuna and Athletic Bilbao battle at the El Sadar in the other semifinal first leg. Barcelona have been hit with an injury issue to Robert Lewandowski, and also lost their last game against Almeria by a solitary goal. Meanwhile, Real Madrid were held to a draw by Atletico Madrid, as their points gap in the LaLiga reduced from 8 to 7.
“We have to change our mindset if we want to win the league and the cup,” Xavi said after El Bilal Toure’s goal confirmed their second defeat of the season. “We have no excuse, we didn’t show the desire to play, intensity, that is what worries me the most," he added.
