To claim victory over Barcelona in El Clasico, Real Madrid will have to win the game’s midfield battle according to Gonzalo Higuain.
The Argentine striker, who is set to start for Los Blancos against Barca after recovering from his back pain, hopes that his side will keep its good form against the Catalans. In fact, Pep Guardiola’s men have proven to be invincible against Real Madrid in El Clasico.
Since the past two seasons, the Spanish giants from Madrid haven’t found the keys to unlock Barcelona’s secret to triumph at the Camp Nou. This time, Gonzalo Higuain has shared ideas as he looks forward to enjoying victory with Los Blancos on Monday night.
“To win El Clasico, we’ll have to maintain the way we play. We haven’t played badly at the Camp Nou in the last few years.
“I think Real Madrid can do something at the Camp Nou. The key to victory will be to put pressure in the midfield.
“The midfield is where Barcelona’s game truly begins. That is where they move better.”
A few days ago, Xabi Alonso declared that the key to triumph over Barcelona at the Camp Nou – where the Catalans are even stronger – is to be strong at both ends of the pitch. Will Real Madrid’s Jose Mourinho blend Higuain and Alonso’s ideas together come Monday night?
Actually, winning the midfield battle and being strong at both ends of the pitch will ensure one thing for Real Madrid in El Clasico: total dominance over their arch-rivals Barcelona.
