Injury-hit Barca to suffer Real's wrath
Real Madrid were no doubt incensed last year, to lose the La Liga title to their bitter rivals Barca as well as exiting the Champions League in ignominious fashion.
They will be looking to come back with a vengeance and securing the first El Clasico of the year is a good place to start.
Barca will not only be without their fortress of the Nou Camp but are suffering from a host of injury issues right now as well. Their core front three of Robert Lewandowsi, Raphinha and Joao Felix are all out for the game leaving the kids to fill in.
While La Masia has been famed for its talent production over the years, they will struggle to compete with the veteran talent of Real.
Injuries will hit Barcelona hard and open up the door for the Galacticos to steal the result.

Catalan’s Conceding in the First Half
Real Madrid have proven to be a powerhouse in La Liga this season, capable of bagging goals in all periods of the game, yet it is in the Catalan’s intriguing record that this bet shows its potential.
Madrid have scored eight goals in the first half so far, but Barca have conceded every single the majority of their goals in this period.
Six of their eight allowed goals have occurred here and one would fancy Real to capitalise upon this and get off the mark early.
They simply need to bag one goal in this half for the line to hit and this should prove no trouble for their talent squad, going against a diminished Barca side,

Galacticos reaching new heights
One can see Real dominating this game in nearly all aspects and with this would come a whole host of corners for the boys in white.
Real are averaging 6.00 corners per away match and has hit the over-4 line in all games bar one. This should continue against Barca who have given up around 4.20 corners per match.
The Galacticos will press their on-field advantage and earn themselves a host of corners in the process.
