Hello and welcome into ESPN FC. We have K-Murray, myself, Craig Burley, C-B-Nickel and

Chakka, his love in the studio. We are looking ahead to the big one this weekend. It's El

Classico for the first time this season in La Liga. Lots to discuss with these two teams.

Real Madrid league leaders coming into it Barcelona. The defending champions just a point

behind them as it stands. The game gets underway on Saturday and coming into it Barcelona are

the favourites as well. They have home advantage home. I put in inverted commas given the fact

that they will be playing away from the camp now and at Monterey but they are the favourites

just slightly coming into this clash. In Barcelona for us we have Luis Garcia and Alexis

Nuno. So guys give us a little bit of the feel the atmosphere right now ahead of this

first Classico of this season because we're going to be seeing new faces as mentioned. It's

away from the camp now as well. Even though it is a Barcelona-based Classico.

Yeah okay and I promise you we've not hired a wind tunnel to try make our hair look really

nice tonight. It's a very windy kind of cold Barcelona but once again the buzz is in the

air. There's always a nice little buzz isn't there Luis when you know we're getting closer

and closer to El Classico. So there's actually a pharmaceutical convention here this week

with 40,000 people that have come from all over the world and have managed to see a lot

of these tours going into the Barça store and buying the new Barça shirt with a Rolling

Stones logo which by the way it goes for 500 euros a shirt. So I'm going to have to ask Luis

to dig into his pockets and buy one for me but the buzz is there. Everyone knows El Classico

is coming and once again there's so many storylines going into this one. Yeah exactly it's

always a very special game. It doesn't matter every single year we said this is the game

of the century and definitely the atmosphere that they create here at the Barcelona City
