Barcelona hold a slender advantage going into their Copa del Rey semi-final second leg as they look to move one step closer to a domestic treble.
Eder Militao’s own goal was enough to separate the sides in the first leg at the Bernabeu.
With Barca having won three of the four El Clasico meetings this season, 6/5 they prevail again is our opening Barcelona vs Real Madrid prediction.
Barca measly at Nou Camp
Xavi’s men have been a tough to crack on home soil this season.
They have conceded just 11 goals in 18 matches at the Nou Camp in all competitions – eight of them coming in three matches in Europe.
Barca have kept 12 clean sheets in total at home and have been breached just twice in 13 La Liga games at their own ground.
Having already beaten Real Madrid to lift the Super Cup, Barca hold a 12-point advantage over their arch rivals in the league and can book their place in the Copa del Rey final by avoiding defeat.
Looking at the Barcelona vs Real Madrid odds, we like 38/100 for them to do just that.
Real out to avoid more heartbreak
Real, who hammered Valladolid 6-0 on Sunday, dominated the first leg and had three times as many attempts at goal but failed to find the target once.
They return to the Nou Camp less than three weeks after suffering late heartache when Franck Kessie struck a stoppage-time winner for Barca.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side have it all to do to catch Barca in the league while they also have a two-legged Champions League quarter-final against Chelsea in April.
Like Barcelona, they are unbeaten at home in the league but have lost four times on their travels.
Three of the four meetings this term have seen both teams score and only twice in the past nine encounters has one side failed to hit the net.
It is 4/6 for both teams to score once more, or for bigger odds we like 8/1 for a 2-1 home win as our final Barcelona vs Real Madrid prediction.
