(Baonghean.vn) - The first leg of the El Clasico match between Real and Barca at Bernabeu on October 25, 2014, the 3-1 victory was in favor of the Spanish Royal team. That made the second leg of the "super classic" match at Nou Camp even hotter and more attractive.

Bar disadvantage in competition schedule

The second leg of El Clasico at the Nou Camp is set to take place on Sunday,22/3/2015. This is a match that coach Enrique and his team certainly cannot afford to lose, because that is the order of the Catalans. Especially when after 26 rounds, Barça is only 1 point ahead of Real, the chance for the La Liga championship will be more for the winner.

However, Barcelona are facing certain difficulties due to the match schedule. On March 19, they have an important match against a strong opponent like Man City in the knockout round of the Champions League. While Real will meet Schalke at the Bernabeu on March 11, and will have a total of... 11 days to prepare for the El Clasico, Barca only has 4 days. For a harsh arena like the Champions League, even though they defeated Man City 2-1 in the first leg (Messi missed a penalty) right on the away field, coach Enrique still does not dare to leave his main strikers on the bench.

But Bar is in form again.

It seems that coach Enrique was right to impose strict discipline in real life but let Suarez, Messi and Neymar freely create on the field. All three Barca strikers are doing their job very well, the "trio" of Suarez, Messi and Neymar are all shining. Just from 2015 until now, the trio of Messi, Suarez and Neymar have scored 39 goals, creating 16 goals.

Enrique also decided to increase the “steel” of Bar’s midfield by regularly using Rakitic and Rafinha. In addition to seeing Pique revive and score again, Catalan fans were happy to see Claudio Bravo and Marc-Andre ter Stegen replace Victor Valdes perfectly.

Barca now plays more directly, the midfielders not only focus on "tiki-taka" but also explode with short passes, combining medium and high speed. The Catalan cules are facing the opportunity for Bar to win the historic "treble" even though on the coaching bench Enrique does not have the flexibility in his relationship with the players like his predecessor Pep Guardiola.

Meanwhile, Carlo Ancelotti is having a headache with the trio “BBC”, which is the trio of Karim Benzema – Gareth Bale – Cristiano Ronaldo. BBC is the default in Real’s starting lineup unless they are injured or not physically fit to play. Coach Carlo Ancelotti prefers to use the 4-3-3 formation in which Bale is placed on the left wing, while Benzema and Ronaldo are free to interchange continuously during the match.

The strength of this formation is to take advantage of Benzema's off-the-ball movement, Ronaldo's scoring ability and Bale's speed. But clearly, BBC are all players who are not good at defending from a distance, so Real's defense is a layer thinner. It is very likely that in the second leg of El Clasico at Nou Camp, coach Carlo Ancelotti will return to the 4-4-2 formation, sacrificing an attacking star. Remember, this talented coach has successfully applied the classic 4-4-2 formation (at Parma), 4-4-2 diamond (at Chelsea), 4-2-2-2 (at Paris Saint-Germain).

Regardless of the formation the two sides play, the second leg of El Clasico at Nou Camp at 9:00 p.m. (local time) on October 25, 2014 will still be a football feast for fans around the world.
