Nigerian MVP nominees among stars to watch out for in ElClasico weekend - LaLiga Preview
Nigerian stars Chrisantus Uche, Umar Sadiq, and Chidera Ejuke are set to captivate fans on LALIGA EA SPORTS Matchday 35, headlined by ElClásico, as they vie for the African MVP award in crucial matches.
Here are five reasons why this is the most decisive ElClásico yet:
1. Barça’s dominance over Real Madrid
Hansi Flick and his Barcelona side have owned ElClásico this season, winning all three prior meetings against Carlo Ancelotti and his Los Blancos.
)
The wins this season include a 4-0 thrashing at the Bernabéu, a 5-2 Spanish Super Cup final rout, and a 3-2 Copa del Rey final win, which initially kept the hope for a treble alive.
Stars like Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, and Lamine Yamal have consistently outshone Los Blancos, but can they maintain their perfect record?
)
2. Real Madrid’s road warrior mentality
Despite their struggles against Barça, Real Madrid have a knack for winning at the Estadi Olímpic.
Real Madrid have claimed victory in three of their last four league visits, including a 2-1 comeback in 2023 fueled by Jude Bellingham’s late brace.
)
Carlo Ancelotti’s side will lean on this away form to keep the title race alive in what has been a difficult campaign.
3. A razor-thin title race
Only four points separate leaders Barça from second-placed Real Madrid after Matchday 34 matches.
)
Both side head in the game looking to consolidate on the last time, Barça’s 2-1 comeback against Real Valladolid and Madrid’s 3-2 thriller over RC Celta.
A Barça win could nearly seal the title, but a Madrid victory would make the final three games a nail-biting showdown.
4. Tough fixtures await Barça
If Real Madrid pull off an upset, Barça face a grueling run-in with a Catalan derby at RCD Espanyol.
In the potential run-run, Flick also faces a home clash against fifth-placed Villarreal, and a trip to fourth-placed Athletic Club.
)
These matches could open the door for Madrid to snatch the crown from Barcelona, who have been at the top for most of the season.
5. Global spotlight on a star-studded showdown
Featuring world-class talents like Lewandowski, Mbappé, Yamal, and Bellingham, this ElClásico is a must-watch for football fans worldwide.
)
After their respective heartbreaks in the UEFA Champions League, Barcelona against Inter Milan in the semis and Real against Arsenal in the quarterfinal, this game is important.
With the title on the line, every moment at the Estadi Olímpic promises drama, passion, and history in the making.

This Sunday, the world will pause to witness a clash that could define the 2024/25 LALIGA EA SPORTS season. Will Barça tighten their grip, or will Madrid spark a comeback? Don’t miss it!
