The Supercopa El Clasico first leg match will be held at Camp Nou tonight. As the opening game of season 2012/13, the match will determine which is the best between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

The question is, will Real Madrid survive the game, knowing that they didn’t start the league season in a fancy way after a 1-1 draw over Valencia last week ?

As for Barcelona, it’s out of the question. They have succeeded in tasting their first league victory of the season by trashing Real Sociedad with an amazing 5-1 score. Then again, history still take side on Real Madrid. Statistically, from 5 Supercopa match, Real Madrid have won 4 of them. But we all know, it takes more than just a statistic to win a game against Barcelona.

As we all can remember from last Supercopa, the 5-4 score aggregate result for Barca’s victory came from a highly tension match, if we won’t call it violent. Especially the second leg at Camp Nou, where the referee threw a lot of cards, 8 yellows and 2 reds, which showed their brutality on the pitch. Yet the most annoying thing of the game was Jose Mourinho’s unexceptable behaviour over Tito Vilanova, for poking his eye.

But enough with that, and let us put more focus on the main object here, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. These 2 players are no doubt are the biggest reason why El Clasico become more interesting.

Besides Real Madrid vs Barcelona , El Clasico can also be called the clash of Messi and Ronaldo. However, based on the last Spanish league performance, Messi is one step ahead Ronaldo. As we can see on the game, Cristiano Ronaldo performance was just so-so, and far from dangerous. He played below his own standards and failed to create threatening shots.

For the disappointing performance, Cristiano Ronaldo made a statement :

“Physically, we’re not in our best condition. This is normal. We will be better, we’ll try to,”said Ronaldo. “We have tried everything, but we still have to reach the highest level we can.”

And while Ronaldo is still working out to get his performance back, Messi already shown his best by scoring 2 goals in the 5-1 winning over Sociedad, and helped Barcelona to stole 2 points in the standings. Not to mention the pre-season friendly matches, where Messi made similar action by scoring more goals.

This condition is tough even for Ronaldo, which all his action on the pitch will be putting in comparison by the press.  And what makes it even harder, is that the first leg clasico will be held at Camp Nou, a place that is like a playground for Messi and his teammates. The only thing that Real Madrid can do is to give it all out, with 100% of confidence and optimism.

In the end, apart from the heat between the two team, we still expect to see a fairplay and entertaining football match. And may the best team win.

The first goal for Real Madrid was in 22nd minute, when Fernando Amorebieta made a handball at the penalty box, which caused them a red card, playing with just 10 player for the rest of the match. Cristiano was the executor, and he succeded in netting the ball, ahead from Bilbao with 1-0.

But 4 minutes before the first half over, Bilbao made their first goal, and it boosted their confidence. The score ended in 1-1 in the first half.

The Whites started to get panic.  If they didn’t get full 3 points on this match, they will have to forget the La liga title. Pellegrini changed the strategy by putting Kaka and also Benzema on the field. His strategy worked well, and it showed with a nice header from Higuain on 73rd minute.

Higuain’s  goal injected more spirits to the Whites. 7 minutes later, Sergio Ramos created a nice overlapping which ended with a shot that add the points to Madrid with 3-1.  A minute later, Benzema showed his skill by scoring another goal, and it killed the hopes for Bilbao to narrowing their score with their host.

And it seemed that Los Blancos was on fire that night, as Marcello scored one more goal for the Spanish Giant, just 1 minute before the game ended, with the result 5-1 for the host. That was a nice closure for the goals party at Santiago Bernabeu.

Real Madrid remains one point behind Barcelona in La Liga as they face Athletic Bilbao. The match will take place the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid, Spain on Saturday, May 8, 2010.

Cristiano Ronaldo will try his best to win this final home game of the season. While Barcelona will be facing Sevilla the same day, also this Saturday, and it could determine the result and end the race title for La liga. If Barca are going to slip, the Los Blancos have to be ready to take the advantage of it.

Real Madrid have won their last five matches league matches while Athletic Bilbao are winless in their last five. With two matches left in the Spanish Primera Division (La Liga) season, Real Madrid need to win both to have a chance at catching Barcelona, since they are one point behind their rivals.

Although Athletic Bilbao is 8th on the list, they will certainly won’t make life easer for the Whites. Bilbao needs to win to keep their hopes for the Europe qualification next season. They will need at least one win their final two matches to get the last Europa League spot and probably more than that. So this match is important to both sides.

Even though Cristiano Ronaldo is on his best performance at the last couple of matches, there’s still a posibility for Real slipping up. But Manuel Pellegrini’s side won’t fail this encounter, since Cristiano Ronaldo has inspired them and brought back their confidence, while hoping for Barca to fail getting the 3 points they need. As my conclusion, Real Madrid will defeat Athletic Bilbao with 3-2 or 3-1.

Real Madrid are the leaders in La Liga but through goal difference only. The Spanish Primera Division is the only competition in which Los Blancos remain.

They crashed out from the Copa del Rey at the earliest stage after losing to minnows Alcorcon 4-1 on aggregate. Lyon also blew their UEFA Champions League hopes by beating them 2-1 on over the two legs in the last sixteen of the tournament.

Real Madrid are willing to give everything it takes to win La Liga and they know how much of a threat Barcelona are to their title aspirations.

The Blaugrana have scored 10 goals in their last 3 matches, with Lionel Messi scoring 5 of those 10 goals – 4 of which came against Arsenal on Tuesday in the Champions League.

Commentating on Barcelona and their superstar Lionel Messi, Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo declared:

“Barcelona are a very complete team and we [Real Madrid] are still lacking a little bit of that ‘something’. I hope that we become more complete than they are.

“Messi doesn’t play alone and his team-mates deserve a lot of credit. He is phenomenal, but those around him are phenomenal as well.”

Will Cristiano Ronaldo’s Real Madrid show Arsenal and the rest of the world how to stop Lionel Messi and Barcelona when both teams clash up in El Clasico on Saturday night in La Liga?

However, the Spanish Sporting Disciplinary Committee (CEDD) has denied the Portuguese superstar from having his dream granted.

Cristiano Ronaldoâ€s two-match ban is final and Real Madrid have definitely lost their appeal. The CEDD refused to open the playerâ€s case and this means that Los Blancos will indeed have to fight against Espanyol without Cristiano Ronaldo.

Real Madrid are five points behind Barcelona and in second place in La Liga standings. Theyâ€ll be playing at the Santiago Bernabeu with the aim of maintaining their perfect home record this season.

As Cristiano Ronaldo will not play, reports indicated that Manuel Pellegrini will have to chose between Raul and Gonzalo Higuain in the starting line up to partner Karim Benzema upfront in search of goals.

Espanyol meanwhile are struggling in this current campaign. The stand in 14th place and along with bottom side Xerez, they hold the most alarming ‘away goals scored†record which is of three goals.

Real Madrid vs Espanyol facts:

1) Espanyol will break Real Madridâ€s record of ten consecutive home wins if they pick at least a point.

2) Real Madrid can be 6 or 8 points behind Barcelona if they fail to win and if the Catalans beat Getafe on Saturday as well.

3) Raul could extend his 16 goals record against Espanyol if he plays and scores this weekend.

For the 25-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo though, Saturdayâ€s La Liga match between Real Madrid and Espanyol will have to be felt away from the field of play.
