Currently, Los Blancos still lead in the league standings  with 85 points. Yet, they’re only 4 points away from rival Barcelona in second place. If Real Madrid succeeded in winning tonight’s El Clasico duel, it will leave Barcelona to almost impossible to catch them in the Primera league since there will only be 4 matches left. On the other hand, if Barcelona win the game, they will cut the margin into 1 point. Which means, Barcelona can only hope for Real Madrid to get frustrated that will losen their confidence and concentration in the last 4matches.

Therefore, for Mourinho, a win in clasico is considered a ticket to win the Primera league, but a draw result will be enough to keep them in a saver competition.

Besides the duel between the club, tomorrow El clasico will be more fierce since it will also involves the competition between 2 of their best players, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi. The 2 players both aim for the El pichichi title, with their goal collection of 41 goal each in la liga.
