Barcelona: A tough 2-2 draw at Real Sociedad on Saturday took some energy out of them, but they are fortunate because they have a full day more of rest than Real does entering this game.
Real Madrid: They earned a 1-1 draw at Valencia with a last-second goal on Sunday from Karim Benzema to remain level, but they wasted a chance to win and enter this game in sole possession of first. Los Blancos have only lost one league game this season, but they will have to create better chances against Barca to take the win.
