Hansi Flick’s Barca visit the Santiago Bernabeu sitting three points ahead of the second-place Spanish champions and thrashed German giants Bayern Munich 5-1 in the Champions League on Wednesday. However Real Madrid are unbeaten in 42 La Liga matches and can match Barcelona’s all-time record of 43 if they avoid defeat.
“The truth is they are doing very well,” admitted Ancelotti at a news conference Friday. “In a game like the Clasico, a derby, it’s hard to pick a favourite. Luckily nobody is taking any sleep away from me at the moment.”
