Clasico line-ups revealed ahead of Camp Nou clash
Ernesto Valverde repeated the side that beat Inter Milan in midweek
This is not just any old Clasico. This is the first without Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo for over a decade. And it could be Julen Lopetegui's last in charge. All will depend on what happens at 4.15pm CET onwards at Camp Nou on Sunday.
Barcelona head into the game second in the table, and Madrid are ninth, but only four points separate the two teams. That could be seven and provoke the sacking of Lopetegui.
Barca coach Ernesto Valverde selected the same team that faced Inter Milan. That means Rafinha at right-wing, in the injured Lionel Messi's stead.
FC BARCELONA: Ter Stegen; Sergi Roberto, Piqué, Lenglet, Jordi Alba; Sergio Busquets, Rakitic, Arthur; Rafinha, Luis Suárez, Coutinho.
REAL MADRID: Courtois; Nacho, Varane, Sergio Ramos, Marcelo; Modric, Casemiro, Kroos, Isco; Bale, Benzema.
