Barcelona hosts Real Madrid in key Clasico showdown in La Liga race
Barcelona and Real Madrid renew their storied rivalry in a La Liga showdown with significant early stakes in the title race (10:15 a.m. ET, beIN Sports).
Real Madrid leads Barcelona by six points through 13 games, meaning a potential six-point swing is on the table at Camp Nou. Barcelona, featuring its star trident of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar, can pull back within three with a victory, which would snap a run of two straight draws for the club. Barcelona is set to welcome Andres Iniesta back from injury for the key game.
Real Madrid, meanwhile, is without the injured Gareth Bale, but Cristiano Ronaldo & Co. can still seize a nine-point lead on its hated foe with an away win, an opportunity that doesn't present itself all that often.
Stay tuned here for highlights of all the goals and key plays from this massive showdown.
