Barcelona vs. Real Madrid: A “friendly” full of casualties
With the obligation to outline a season that, at the very least, must be excellent for both teams, Barcelona and Real Madrid will play a match that will not feature the main figures of both teams for different reasons, between vacations, injuries and the Olympic Games, they will play a somewhat weak derby.
First of all, The two great footballing exponents of both teams, Lamine Yamal and Kylian Mbappe, will not be availabledid not travel to this preseason and will not play. Players such as Vinicius, Rodrygo and Militao, for Real Madrid, will arrive on August 1st, on the other hand, figures of the Catalan team such as Gavi, Pedri, Ronald Araújo and Frenkie de Jong, are injured, so they will not be there for this match either.
So who are they? The names of Courtois, Rudiger, Modric, Guller and Endrick stand out for the white team. (awaiting the arrival of the rest of the Brazilian legion); on the other hand, the Culés will have Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, Ilkay Gündogan, Marc-André Ter Stegen and French winger Jules Kounde among the call-ups.

Second date on the Soccer Champions Tour 2024
Without a doubt, the American squad for this match could be a record, after all, and beyond the fact that it is a friendly tournament, it has the best of the European teams. In fact, this match between Barcelona vs. Real Madrid will be the second outing for both teams.
Barcelona’s first game was against Manchester City. Real Madrid’s first game was against Milan in Chicago. Beyond this match, both sides will have a third game, for the Catalans it will be against Milan, and the last game for Los Merengues will be against Chelsea.
Barcelona and the cup friendlies
To be honest, everything looks bleak for the Catalan team. To date, the lack of reinforcements is “striking” and with a team that disappointed both fans and opponents last season, it is clear that nothing will be easy in the coming years, especially because Barca’s stick is Real Madrid itself, which signed Mbappe.
Beyond that and the fact that the Whites have won the last 3 duels, the “Friendly Cup” is for the Blaugranas.This is the fourth preparation match between these two teams in the last 7 years, of which 3 victories stand out for Barca..
Two of those Catalan victories were dominated by goals, one by 3-2 and the other by a solid 3-0 that gave rise to a good start to the season, one that ended up being a horror.
