Former “Real Madrid” player Rafael van der Vaart has shared his prediction for the “Barcelona” - “Real Madrid” match to be played in the 10th round of La Liga.
İdman.Biz, referencing the AS publication, reports that the Dutch former footballer believes the Madrid representative will win in El Clásico to be held on October 25.
“I expect “Real Madrid” to win this match. Even though “Barcelona” performs well, I think the Madrid club will be able to effectively use the Catalans' ball losses through counter-attacks. I believe that “Real Madrid” will punish “Barcelona”,” - van der Vaart stated.
He also highly appreciated the playing style of the team managed by Jose Mourinho:
“I am not expecting any surprises. I think Mourinho will hardly change the lineup from the match they won at home against “RB Leipzig”.
“Real Madrid” has turned into a winning machine. Players fight for their head coach and show all their strength in every inch of the field. Mourinho's style is clear: the team plays organized and disciplined football. It is not necessarily required to show beautiful football to win. The main thing is to win”.
It should be noted that the “Barcelona” - “Real Madrid” match will be held on October 25 at the “Camp Nou” stadium.
