El Clasico ~ Messi Vs Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are back from injury and will face each other this Sunday in the ‘El Clasico’ (Barcelona V Real Madrid), the most anticipated match of the La Liga season so far. Messi was rested ahead of the weekend clash and watched his team beat Inter Milan 2-0 in the mid week Champions League group match.

There is plenty at stake in the game already, as Madrid go into the match holding a slim lead in the title race over the Catalan club after 11 matches. Ronaldo returns to the Madrid side after a two month absence with an ankle injury.

Latest prices on Betfair Bookmakers show Barcelona trading at 1.92 with Real Madrid available at 4.2 and the draw 4.0. Seems like an incredible price on Real, but the big stars of Madrid suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of Barca last year when they were beaten 6-2 in the Bernabeu. Both sides have world class players who could turn a game in a heartbeat, so maybe the safest bet is to sit back and enjoy the show!
