el clasico (Barcelona vs Real madrid) who do you think will win?

With their current form i think barcelona will own real madrid. Messi could even hit a hattrick

hi,bryanx! it will be a fantastic derby match..real madrid did have gotten some trouble recently while Barca seems perfect right now..however, there are always possibilities during a derby football match...i reckon Barca will not have many advantages this weekend and probably real madrid will gain 3 points if they can score one goal first... this is maybe a turning point match for real madrid this season in my opinion...

i really hate this sort of games with all fingers pointing to nothing except a barcelona win for the following reasons,
1) barcelona is top of the league
2) Barce has home advantage which is extremely important in spanish league
3) madrid is going thru a bad streak
4) Madrid has lots of injuries

So combining all four show that Barcelona will win hands down. But let wait a minute and see how soccer works. There is also the bookmaking factor which can influence an outcome. If barcelona draw or lose, i believe the bookmakers would win huge amount of money in this game. Remember arsenal against chelsea in a similar situation 2 weekends ago. Arsenal upset chelsea 2-1 away. So this is a potential outcome too esp when madrid is changing manager. So i would go for a draw since i see both teams have a lots to play for

the actual result is a win for barca, 2-0, eto'o and messi scored.
too bad for juande ramos.
