El Clasico - Attackers

Attack is and essential part for the two teams with the most la Liga titles and this season the attacker line is one of the most impressive. With Messi and Ronaldo scoring more than 50 goals per season we can be sure that we will see goals this Saturday.

FC Barcelona

Messi is not a sole star in Barcelona, the success of the Argentinian is thanks to all the other players that are able to feed him with passes. 

Other important names in the team are Iniesta, Alves and Xavi but we cannot forget the other players in the team and all of them essential for the match.

This year with the new coach Luis Enrique, we have seen Messi fall back to a position a bit behind his usual one; and Messi is scoring as much as he is assisting. 

Nonetheless he is currently the second scorer in the team, just one goal behind Neymar. The first season in Barcelona for the Brazilian wasn’t a good one due to the injuries and this year has been constantly substituted by Luis Enrique, but even so, he is the top scorer in the team with ten goals in ten matches.

The last one in the line is in the air, some are hoping to see the debut of Suarez for the first time in a official game, but others want to see youngster Munir in that position.

Real Madrid

As well as in Barcelona, Cristiano Ronaldo is not the only name in attack for Real Madrid, but a big part of it. The Portuguese has the rest of the team to help him in this task.

But most likely Cristiano will be the man that will decide the fate of the game, a good night will bring the three points and a most likely nightmare for Barcelona defense.

Excluding Ronaldo, coach Ancelotti has other good players to choose from, the trio Benzema, Bale and Cristiano, but the Welsh will not be in this game with a muscle injury.

The job to assist Ronaldo falls in the hands of Benzema, who has scored six goals against Barcelona and his job is critical. The place of Bale will most likely be filled with James Rodríguez, that will also help in the defense and midfield.
