Araújo vs Vinicius, Gavi vs Kroos... The 7 great duels of Madrid-Barça in the Cup

All the Classical between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid are special and the one of this Thursday, in spite of the multiple drops of the Barça, does not go to be less. Both teams play a square in the final of Glass of Rey and the result of this gone in Santiago Bernabéu could mark in a sense or in another the eliminatory. It is thus by what Xavi Hernández like Carlo Ancelotti go to go with all what have available and do not go to save absolutely at all in the recámara.

The tension and the controversy in this type of meetings is more than usual and therefore avecinan several individual duels very 'spicy' and thrilling. In the two Classical contested this course, with a victory for each group (the one of the Barcelona meant the title of the Supercopa of Spain) have confirmed the 'hammer' and the clashes futbolísticos that initiated the past campaign, and expects that in this 'semis' coperas repeat many of them. To continuation, the big 1 vs 1 that it could leave this partidazo:

Ter Stegen vs Courtois

Right now it can that Marc-André ter Stegen was the goalkeeper more in shape of the world, whereas Thibaut Courtois has been the best of the planet during the two last years, and especially during the past. The Belgian has gone down something his performance, as it showed in the 'cantadón' in front of the Liverpool, but his quality is out of all doubt. The result of this Classical could depend on who of the two have more the night and can do some unemployed saviour more. The two are very good, but seems that the germano is a bit more 'touched by the wand' that his rival.

Araújo vs Vinicius

Without the always wished clash between Karim Benzema and Robert Lewandowski by the absence by injury of the Pole, the big duel of this partidazo seems that it will be definitely Ronald Araújo against Vinicius Jr. Both carry several Classical confronting in the Barcelona right and the left madridista, and everything does to indicate that they will go back them to him to have this Thursday. Xavi is used to to use to the charrúa like antidote against the Brazilian and has gone him enough well, since it has braked him and even has it to him 'eaten' in a lot of moments. It expects , therefore, that the Uruguayan was lateral right and from here will have to minimise to a 'Vini' that arrives like the big star and reference of the Madrid, and that it wants to be the big protagonist of the night.

Gavi/Kroos

Toni Kroos began this individual 'hammer' going up a photo of Gavi kneeled in front of him in the Classical of League for 'mofarse' of him after the victory merenge. But the Andalusian does not intimidate in front of anybody and after the triumph in the Supercopa also decided to go up like answer a photo with Kroos in the just floor behind him. Now they will go back to see the faces and so much one like the another will have to try dominate the crash and the ball in the midfield.

Koundé vs Benzema

If Araújo begins in the side to stop to Vinicius, as it has occurred in the last Classical, Jules Koundé will be beside Christensen the attendant to brake to Karim Benzema. The Frenchman of the Barcelona, that comes playing in the right-handed lane, will go back to the centre of the defence, that is where for real marks the difference. It will confront to his compatriot, to the that knows of France, and that does not arrive in his best moment. Karim Benzema is marking goals, but is not leaving good feelings with the ball neither in the collective game, where is appearing very little. In spite of this and to be physically far of his 'prevail', the last Balloon of Gold will be a hard proof for the ex of the Seville, that will have to be very concentrated.

Raphinha vs Nacho

The one of this Thursday has to be the party in which Raphinha of this step at the front that it asks him since it arrived. The Brazilian will have in front to Nacho Fernández, the multipurpose of the Real Madrid, that will have to play with almost total security of left-handed side in front of the absences of Ferland Mendy and of David Praises, that lesionó against the Liverpool. The Spanish is a good central and has showed that it is a solvent side, but does not leave to be a defender doing a 'patch' as carrilero. The extreme blaugrana can not doubt and has to look for him one and again, trying diagonal, going out also by out and looking for a lot the one against one.

Of Jong vs Modric

The rivalry, always sportive, between these two 'cracks' began in the eliminatory between Ajax and Madrid of Champions in which they imposed the Dutch. Frenkie 'Went out' and dominated in front of Luka Modric, and now the Croat will try to do it in this Classical. The '21' of the Barça arrives in better form that the Balkan and wants to show that the relief generacional already has given , but the '10' merengue does not surrender easily and in spite of his 37 years has left clear in several occasions that still has football to be important in the big occasions. It will be a one for one lovely in all the senses.

Balde vs Valverde

They are two of the greater 'beasts' physical of LaLiga and surely of Europe, and will see the faces from the minute one of the party. Fede Valverde will play of right extreme in the 4-3-3 white, as it has done in a lot of crashes this course and the past. Although it is not an attacker to the use, will fall a lot to the half and no desequilibrará with balloon, the Uruguayan can do a lot of damage by this side to the counterattack because of his enormous power and speed. Luckily, Alejandro Balde has more than enough of the one and of the another, by what will be a beautiful duel of athletes.
