Overview
- The match kicks off Saturday at 16:00 local time at Montjuïc and is broadcast on DAZN, marking the women’s team’s farewell at the stadium.
- Barça’s coach says he has the lineup set, with Laia Aleixandri expected to cover Guijarro’s role and striker Ewa Pajor available to start.
- Real Madrid arrive steadier under new coach Pau Quesada after an early-season wobble, buoyed by a late European draw against Paris FC.
- The rivalry tilts heavily to Barça historically (18–1), though March’s first Madrid win—marked by refereeing controversy—still lingers for the champions.
- VAR will be in use after the contentious decisions in the last meeting, and a victory would move Barça seven points clear, a margin the coach calls very positive rather than decisive.
