The El Clasico is always a hot affair not just in Spain but all over the world and the month of January bring us another version of this football extravaganza. To see who will get one step closer to lifting the Spanish Super Cup at the end of this classic fixture, we at Alley Sport bring you the El Clasico Preview, Latest H2H Record and Betting Tips from the Supercopa de Espana 21/22 semi-final clash between Barcelona and Real Madrid.

El Clasico Preview

Despite a torrid start to the season after Lionel Messi’s unfortunate departure under Dutch manager Ronald Koeman, Barcelona have slowly but surely been making progress ever since Xavi was given the job as the new boss of the Blaugrana. Agreed, 6th in the table does not necessarily paint a pretty picture, but considering their financial debt of over €1.5 billion, they have coped well to atleast offer some sort of fight this season. Real Madrid running away with the title is definitely not what Barcelona fans like seeing. As such, Xavi’s men will surely be fired up to take atleast this trophy away from the hands of their fierce rivals in the Clasico.

Real Madrid, on the other hand, have taken full advantage of their rivals’ failings to establish a gaping lead at the top of the La Liga table. New signing David Alaba has been resolute to say the least, while Brazilian duo Vinicius and Rodrygo have found a new lease of life under Italian manager Carlo Ancelotti, who has consistently believed in their ability. A chance to remind their fierce rivals just how far they have fallen beckons in the Spanish Super Cup and Los Blancos’ mouths must be watering at the prospect of the same this week.
