Real Madrid and FC Barcelona have faced each other five times this season, in all competitions. Advantage for Xavi’s team, three wins to two.
After years of relatively friendly relations, the rivalry between Real Madrid and FC Barcelona has resurfaced in Spain as the level of animosity on and off the pitch has risen sharply in recent months. There were the tensions of the last Clasico but also the attacks of Joan Laporta towards Real Madrid who went civil in the Negreira affair. That the Madrid club did not appreciate neither.

However, this animosity should not prevent the two clubs from finding themselves in a framework that remains new, namely in pre-season. Real Madrid faced Barça for the first time in a friendly in the United States in 2017 (3-2 defeat in Miami) before a second round in Las Vegas in 2022. There too, Barça won thanks to Raphina ( 0-1).
According to information from AS, a third confrontation in the pre-season has already been scheduled and it will be this summer, at least July. July 29 more precisely according to the Spanish source who already confirms that Real Madrid will go to the United States. The match against FC Barcelona should be played in Dallas in the Cotton Bowl stadium which has 92,101 seats and it promises a great atmosphere because it is unlikely that tensions will subside by then.
