A Clásico is always a Clásico, but it must be admitted that in this case it does not have all the qualities that make Real Madrid-Barcelona a paralyzing event. We can talk about decaffeinated Clásico, but what can this game bring to both teams?
It will mainly serve to see many players debut. We don’t know if Xavi will be able to give Robert Lewandowski minutes, or if Carlo Ancelotti will think it necessary to bet on Tchouameni or Rüdiger, the two new players for the white team. It will also be interesting to see the position from which Ansu Fati starts, because in the first two preseason games he has played in different demarcations; Center forward and left winger.
What is clear is that the result or the bad game of one of the two teams will not be more than a small bump in the road ahead of the start of a campaign that begins in just three weeks.
In addition, it is very likely that both coaches will change the eleven players at half-time, as it is customary in this type of match that stands out for the absence of limits on substitutions.
It will also serve to see the state of form of many of the players who have just arrived on vacation, as we remember that Real Madrid has just returned to work because the campaign ended a week later as a result of the Champions League final dispute .
Ultimately, both teams will want to win but neither coach is going to lose his head with the result. It is a perfect match to test tactics, players or even formations. One more friendly but against your greatest rival.
