Ansu Fati and Philippe Coutinho are out. Ronald Koeman has discovered his best development. Atletico Madrid is back living on earth.
The end goal is in sight, and a success for Barcelona has the additional advantage of putting Real Madrid's odds of rehashing as champions in genuine danger.
Imagery to the side, the Barca players are laser centered around lifting a homegrown title.
It will not be simple, however predetermination is in their grasp on the off chance that they can win out.
Back in November, the 3-1 loss to Real Madrid embodied the early battles.
A flimsy safeguard and midfield that got dissected with an underlapping run by Federico Valverde.
A cruel punishment given by VAR after a shirt pull by Clement Lenglet on Sergio Ramos.
Three significant focuses lost, and their certainty too.
From that point forward it's been an excursion to recover footballing sorcery. It's back, and without a moment to spare for the best brandishing exhibition on the planet.
This ought to be a Clasico for the ages.
A Test for the Backlines
Éder Militão and Nacho addressed the call against Liverpool instead of Sergio Ramos and Raphael Varane.
Barcelona should in any case anticipate giving them a decent test. Sergio Ramos, specifically, realizes each catch to push against the Blaugrane. The bogeyman is out, and Barca will see the value in the chance it presents.
On the opposite side, Ronald Koeman has significant choices to make.
The three-man backline has worked and it's staying put.
Oscar Mingueza, Clement Lenglet, and Frenkie de Jong have been the ones to execute on it.
Will Koeman take a risk and addition Ronald Araujo and Gerard Pique, or prize the players liable for the new achievement?
In any case, everyone's eyes will be on the backline who cost Barcelona the last time around.
Ideally, the focuses will be procured with uncommon play on the assaulting end, yet protective weaknesses are something the two groups will hope to abuse.
Jodi Alba and Sergino Dest were brilliant spots in the last Clasico. Both are probably going to get approval on Saturday, and will be approached to be forceful on the wing.
Clash of the Midfield
Numerous savants have hailed the Real Madrid midfield as the best on the planet.
The resume of Toni Kroos, Luca Modric, and Casemiro is difficult to contend with. They're adjusted, imaginative, and realize how to control the speed and heading of a game.
With Pedri, Sergio Busquets, and a maverick Frenkie de Jong who will go anyplace however he sees fit's, midfield has developed into a coordinated and adaptable outfit.
This is the place where the strategies will be felt.
Will either side truly be making it work, or will they be careful and content with a draw?
Genuine Madrid has more on the line, while Barcelona offered themselves a major kindness by figuring out how to catch the three focuses against Real Valladolid. Possibly, they could lose and still be well in the running.
Even more motivation to go for the knockout.
With the three man backline, Busquets and Pedri will be ruined for choices up the field.
Except if the arrangement changes, Dest and Alba will be positioned wide with an eye on the last third consistently.
The Real Madrid protectors will have their hands full following Dembele and Messi, leaving Busquets and Pedri with conceivable outcomes every which way.
I anticipate that this one should be an exemplary matchup with Barcelona overwhelming belonging, yet helpless on the counter assault.
How will the Barca midfield manage the belonging? Did they watch the manner in which Real Madrid had the option to destroy Liverpool on the counter?
It will be interesting to see who gets the high ground.
Craving before objective
Dembele and Vinícius Júnior are two of the most hazardous aggressors in open space not named Kylian Mbappe.
Antoine Griezmann and Asensio round out the supporting cast of advances who realize how to score significant objectives.
This game could boil down to a snapshot of brightness from any of these stars.
Ansu Fati had the option to give his group a lift almost immediately in the last matchup. From that point forward, Barcelona was inefficient and allowed Real Madrid to stay nearby until VAR went to their salvation.
Barca has improved at taking care of possibilities, and are right now driving La Liga with 68 objectives, contrasted with 51 for Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid.
Dembele and Griezmann are in awesome structure and wearing the blaugrane with pride.
Messi glanced corroded emerging from the global break, yet he sees better compared to anybody what's on the line, and will be anxious to build another famous Clasico feature.
You need to envision that every one of these players will get their opportunities.
Will they take them? In the event that they don't, will they be made to pay on the opposite end?
Here and there the field, the no holds barred will be energizing to watch.
The award will be there for the most ravenous group to take.
Barcelona of late have looked daring and aspiring.
What better approach to underscore their turnaround than to bring down their opponent before the world, and bless themselves the wagering top picks to become heroes of Spain.
