The stage is set for a thrilling El Clásico, where the title of Infinity Cupholder will be up for grabs. With only three rounds remaining in the season, this match is as dramatic as it gets. Real Madrid, currently 4 points behind Barcelona in the standings, must win to keep their title hopes alive.
Barcelona has been in exceptional form in La Liga in 2025, remaining unbeaten with 12 wins and 2 draws so far. However, their midweek defeat in the Champions League at the hands of Inter Milan has left them with a sour taste in their mouths, adding even more intensity to this already heated rivalry.
In a dramatic Copa del Rey final just two weeks ago, Barcelona triumphed 3-2 after extra time, handing Real Madrid a painful defeat. Tensions boiled over afterward, with Madrid receiving three red cards.
For Real Madrid, this is more than just a rivalry match—it’s a chance to defend their Infinity Cup. They only need a draw to retain the trophy, a result they’ve managed in 7 of their last 10 visits to Barcelona. Despite Barcelona’s strong recent performances, Real Madrid has proven resilient in this fixture, making them the slight favorites to keep the Infinity Cup in their possession.
Historically, the long-term record is heavily in favor of Barcelona, who have won more than half of all encounters between the two. However, this season, Barcelona has been dominant, winning all three meetings so far.
As both teams fight for glory, Espanyol and Mallorca are the next opponents for each side, eager to challenge whoever holds the Infinity Cup in the following rounds.
This El Clásico is more than just a match—it’s a decisive moment in the season with the Infinity Cup on the line, and all eyes will be on Camp Nou for what promises to be a memorable clash.
