The stage is set for the final El Clásico of the 2025-26 season, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. Barcelona have a golden opportunity to seal the LaLiga title, but they’ll have to do it without their brightest young star, Lamine Yamal. Real Madrid, meanwhile, are missing Kylian Mbappé and Fede Valverde — two key cogs in their machine. It’s a blockbuster showdown at Camp Nou, and the lineups are finally here.

For Barcelona, manager Xavi has opted for a mix of youth and experience. Joan García gets the nod in goal, shielded by a back four of Koundé, Cubarsí, Gerard Martín, and João Cancelo. The midfield engine room features Pedri and Gavi — the heartbeat of this Barça side — while the attack is led by Robert Lewandowski, supported by Rashford, Olmo, and Fermín. It’s a lineup built for control and creativity.

Real Madrid, as always, boast star power despite the absences. Thibaut Courtois starts between the sticks, with a defensive line of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Rüdiger, Huijsen, and Fran García. In midfield, Tchouaméni and Camavinga provide the steel, while Jude Bellingham pulls the strings just behind a front three of Brahim Díaz, Vinicius Jr., and Gonzalo. It’s a lineup that screams counter-attacking danger.

Off the pitch, there’s a touch of flair: Barcelona president Joan Laporta has invited Mauricio Sulaiman, president of the World Boxing Council, and European super lightweight champion Sandor Martin to the executive box. Clearly, the Blaugrana are enjoying the moment. But on the pitch, the action will speak louder than any celebrity guest.
