A season of intense rivalry culminates in high-stakes matches with title implications as both giants clash on the pitch
The competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga during the 2024/2025 season has been marked by intense and high-stakes matches, with both teams showing strong performances. So far, Barcelona has had the upper hand in their encounters. They secured a decisive 4-0 victory over Real Madrid on October 10th, 2024, and also triumphed in the Supercopa final on January 12th, 2025, with a 5-2 win despite a red card being issued to their goalkeeper. These matches were not only significant in terms of scorelines but also had implications for the title race in La Liga.
Looking ahead, the next and final Clásico of the season is scheduled for the weekend of May 10th/11th, 2025, at Estadi Olimpic Lluís Companys in Barcelona. This match is set for matchday 35, close to the season’s end, and could potentially be decisive in the title race if both teams remain close in the standings.
Barcelona and Real Madrid could also face each other in the Copa del Rey or the UEFA Champions League, depending on their progress in these tournaments. Their potential meetings in these competitions would add another layer of excitement and rivalry to their season encounters
