Real Madrid visit Catalyuna to play Barcelona in a La Liga encounter.
Luka Modric
Real Madrid are trailing Barcelona by a point in the league table. A win here will mean Real Madrid will leapfrog Catalan giants to the top with 2 points advantage. Barcelona have managed 65 points from 27 games with 78 goals scored and just 16 conceded. Real Madrid have scored 77 goals and have goal difference of 53 with 64 points to their name.
Real Madrid do not have any fresh injury concerns but are still without Colombian midfielder James Rodriguez. Carlo Ancelotti will make a last ditch decision on selection of left back as both Marcelo and Fabio Coentrao are vying for the spot. Luka Modric has successfully recovered from injury and he will partner with Toni Kroos and Isco in central midfield. Gareth Bale scored a brace in recent win against Levante and he will be hoping to continue on the same rich form into this match as Cristiano Ronaldo keeps searching for his form in 2015.
Probable Starting Lineup:
Formation: 4-3-3
Casillas
Carvajal – Pepe – Varane – Marcelo
Kroos – Modric – Isco
Bale – Benzema – Ronaldo
