FC Barcelona and Real Madrid meet in El Clasico on Sunday, and Barca has the chance to put itself on the brink of clinching the La Liga title with a win.

Barca leads Madrid by four points with four matches left, including this weekend's. The Blaugrana has won all three of its matches against Los Blancos this season, including winning in Madrid twice by 4-0 and 5-2 scorelines.

While Barcelona has to recover from playing an extra 30 minutes on Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League semifinals, Real Madrid will be without four of its top defenders: David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao, and Antonio Rudiger.

Can Barcelona recover from Tuesday's disappointment and make it four wins this season against their title rivals on Sunday?
