FC Barcelona and Real Madrid clash today at 9:00 PM in their third match of the season, vying for a ticket to the Copa de la Reina semi-finals in Madrid.

This will be the third 'clásico' of the season, with the Barcelona team starting as the undisputed favorite, being the defending champion and having won almost all previous encounters against the white team. The tie is decided in a single match at the Alfredo Di Stéfano Stadium.
The two previous matches this season fell to the Blaugrana side. In mid-November, the Catalans won 4-0 in the League, and later secured the Supercopa (0-2), a more demanding match that represented the first title of the season for Pere Romeu's squad.

"It is the most complicated match we will have against Madrid because we are playing at their stadium."
