El Clasico is never an ordinary match, but Sunday's meeting between Barcelona and Real Madrid carries extra weight. With an 11-point lead over their rivals, Barcelona know that victory, or even a draw, at the Nou Camp would seal back-to-back La Liga titles.
Real Madrid, meanwhile, are in crisis after a 3-0 defeat to Arsenal in the Champions League quarter-finals and a 2-1 loss to Valencia in La Liga. Manager Carlo Ancelotti faces pressure, with the team trailing Barcelona by 11 points with only four games left after this match.
Barcelona have been dominant this season, led by Robert Lewandowski's 22 league goals and Lamine Yamal's creativity. Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham has 18 goals but has struggled in recent weeks. The match kicks off at 21:00 CEST on Sunday, May 10, 2026.
