Throughout the history of their 253 meetings, Real Madrid has won more games against Barcelona, with 101 victories (39.92%) compared to Barcelona's 100 wins (39.53%), while 52 matches (20.55%) ended in draws.

Barcelona plays at home, therefore it increases the likelihood of the team winning the match.

F.C. Barcelona has strengthened its squad with cost-effective or free transfers and high-profile loan signings like Joao Cancelo and Joao Felix. These additions have provided new dimensions to Xavi's team, equipping them with fresh resources.

Due to the long-term injuries of Thibaut Courtois and Éder Militao, coach Carlo Ancelotti has brought back Arda Güler and David Alaba, whose presence is highly valuable in the absence of the Brazilian player and uncertainties on the left flank. They have shown great reliability, conceding only seven goals to date, the lowest figure in the entire championship.

In summary, over the course of their history, Real Madrid has secured slightly more victories than Barcelona in their 253 encounters, particularly when playing at home. Barcelona has enhanced its squad with smart signings and loans, while Real Madrid has adapted well to injury setbacks with key players stepping up to maintain a strong defensive record.

Real Madrid even though is not playing at home has more chances to win.
