Both FC Barcelona and Real Madrid will have significant losses ahead of the Clásico, which will be played on October 28 at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Compannys... Who arrives the most damaged at the clash?

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Waiting for that the virus FIFA do not have effects in this opportunity, FC Barcelona and Real Madrid already look to the Classical that will contest next Saturday 28 October in Montjuïc. Still they remain a few weeks and, before, will have to contest parties very demanding to keep the rhythm in LaLiga and Champions League, but is not a secret for anybody that, when being a so important party, the attention is used to to divert.

The first conclusion of face to the party is that they will have big absences. Further of the players that have abandoned the two teams in the last market of signings, Barça and Madrid aim to confront with the full infirmaries. Robert Lewandowski, after confirming his sprain in the left ankle, has been the last of the that has 'checked' that has very few (minimum!) Options to contest the party in front of the eternal rival.

Rain of drops in the Barça

It is one of the most sensitive drops for the Barça, but no the only. Raphinha Has options reduced to be able to play against the Madrid after suffering an injury in the biceps femoral of his right thigh. In paper, would have to have received the high doctor for this date, but will depend on his evolution so that it can see minutes. It has it complicated and from the medical services will not demand him of more. It is the same case of a Frenkie of Jong that aims to reappear in November by the sindesmosis tibioperoneal distal of the right ankle.

The Dutch is in full process of recovery, but is complicated and will depend of the day in day out and how go feeling. Has very few options to be recovered in this month and results practically impossible that play in the Classical. Yes it could a Pedri González that it already has begun to train on the lawn and would begin to see minutes after the stop of selections to go testing.

The Real Madrid, with grave injuries

In the section of the Real Madrid it is necessary to stand out the absence of Nacho Fernández, the one who has been sanctioned by the next three parties (Osasuna, Seville and Barça) after the hard entrance that him propinó to Portu in Montilivi. Besides, Carlo Ancelotti has to two players with injuries of long length: Thibaut Courtois and Éder Militao, with break of ligament in both cases. No it expects them until mediated of the 2024. It keeps the doubt of Burn Güler, finally, the one who has gone back to exercise on the lawn after suffering an injury in the previous straight muscle left on 26 September.
