When is the next El Clasico? The dates of Real Madrid vs Barcelona 2019-20 fixtures
The 2019-20 season has opened another new era for Real Madrid after a major squad overhaul in which they have welcomed the high-profile signings of Eden Hazard, Luka Jovic and Eder Militao.
Following the disappointment of last season, when they finished trophyless, the Blancos are sure to embark on another bid for silverware under Zinedine Zidane.
Barcelona, meanwhile, lifted just one trophy last season - La Liga - as they dealt with the blows of losing out on the Champions League and Copa del Rey titles.
The Spanish champions invested in their squad heavily over the summer with the signing of two stars - Frenkie de Jong and Antoine Griezmann.
