Real Madrid vs Barcelona: Talking Tactics

Carlo Ancelotti will prefer fielding a 4-3-1-2 formation to take on the opponents. They will try to play more expressively unlike last week. Expect the Whites to do a lot of attacks.

Xavi should name a 4-3-3 formation and will instruct his men to remain on their toes as Real Madrid can hit on transitions. Barcelona will try to dictate terms in the midfield by overloading the man.
