El Clásico: Barcelona vs Real Madrid preview, team news and starting lineup

  Mundo Deportivo described it as a "golden opportunity."  SPORT, "Great Event".

  At a lucky turn of events, FC Barcelona unexpectedly found itself at the top of La Liga by two points.  This was accomplished by winning his last four games on the trot, while, at the same time, his bitter rivals - Real Madrid - three points ahead - five fell through a 2-2 draw with Celta Vigo at the Bernabeu and lost 1-0 to  Levante.

  Of course, after winning at El Clasico on Sunday evening, Quique Setien's men can open the same points deficit and go a long way toward ensuring the third consecutive La Liga championship.
