PRE-MATCH REAL MADRID - FC BARCELONA | STARTING 11 LINE-UPS ?

Big day in SPANISH FOOTBALL,  & in World Football, as two giants meet in the SPANISH LEAGUE to attempt to shift , or retain,  the "Balance of Power". Tonight at the "Santiago Bernabeu Stadium" at 22.00 (hrs) REAL MADRID CF hosts FC BARCELONA in the first of this LIGA season "Clasico" games.

A win here by Real Madrid would give them a 9 point advantage over their arch rivals & set them on course with an enormous psychological / moral boost onto the LIGA title. A FC Barcelona victory would set things back in line - that they are the Best Club in the World - sink psychologically Real Madrid & cut back Madrid´s current 6 point lead. This & fly off to Japan in the highest of spirits to attempt to win the "FIFA Clubs Championship"

The big questions & debates pre-match here are mostly all tactical. Will Mourinho play with 3 defensive midfielders? Which forward will play - Higuain or Benzema? Will Real Madrid attack? Will Barcelona play with 3 defenders in a 3 - 4 - 3 system? Will Villa play or Alexis? The questions are long & many.

Spanish Sports paper "Marca" put the above front cover today with what they believe may be the possible "starting 11 line-ups" of both Real Madrid & FC Barcelona. Pure speculation at this stage & we will all have to wait & see minutes before the match. What is assured are surprises.

So, enjoy the spectacular & the biggest game of World Football tonight.  Spanish Football Sports will post up a summary , result, scorers & images late tonight- early morning
