There are many iconic matches around the world, Bayern Munich - Borussia Dortmund, Boca Jrs vs River Plate, Manchester United vs Manchester City... however, there is no doubt that when Real Madrid vs Barcelona is played, the entire world it paralyzes. Now, we are only 19 days away from the first "El Clasico" of the season. However, now the Catalan team has received strong news.

In yesterday's match, during the tie between Granada and Barcelona by a score of 2-2 in gameweek number 9 of La Liga, Jules Koundé left the match injured. The French defender has been key this season (and the previous one) for FC Barcelona, however, now the worst news for the Blaugrana team has been confirmed, and that is that he will be injured for a minimum of five weeks, so officially, he will miss the match against Real Madrid.

Real Madrid also has significant casualties, however, they have already been replaced. Eder Militao and Thibaut Courtois were injured at the beginning of the season, and there are still months before they can play with the team again. The Clasico will greatly define the season for both teams, since Real Madrid is already in first place in La Liga, three points ahead of FC Barcelona. If the Madrid team wins, they would move 6 points away from the Catalans, however, if Xavi's team manages to win, they would equal the meringues on points.

Barcelona's plan:

FC Barcelona has a good squad, and has several quality players in attack such as Joao Félix or Ferran Torres, who is most excited among the culés is the youth Lamine Yamal. This 16-year-old attacker has just renewed with a record clause and this Sunday he became the youngest footballer to convert in the history of La Liga.
