PREVIEW | FC Barcelona v Real Madrid (women)

At 6.15pm CET, the women's team will be looking to consolidate their position at the top of the Liga F

It's Clásico time at the Estadi Johan Cruyff. Barça face Real Madrid in a 6.15pm CET kick-off where the home side will be hoping to maintain their 100 per cent record in the women's championship. 

With 22 wins in 22 games in the league, the Catalans will also be looking to continue their 100 per cent record against the all-whites. In ten meetings to date, they have won every time, scoring 36 goals and receiving just 6.

Madrid need to change their form. Under Alberto Toril they have just suffered a defeat and then a draw, leaving them 10 points adrift of leaders Barça. So, a Barça victory on Saturday could open the gap to a massive 13 points.

It's going to be a big week at the Estadi Johan Cruyff. Immediately after, Roma will be in town for the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final, with Barça currently 1-0 up from the first game in Italy.

For this weekend's fixture, Jonatan Giráldez is going to have to make do without the services of the injured Clàudia Pina, Mariona and Alexia Putellas.
