It's a rare sticky point for Xavi at the minute with just one win in their last four outings.
Real are banging in the goals at the minute, too - with four against Elche a fortnight ago at five at Anfield in the Champions League.
They're also won three of the last four El Clasicos, the last one which coming last month in the Spanish Super Cup.
But they'll need to improve on their recent showings if looking to take a positive result back to the Camp Nou.

Team News
Real Madrid will be without Ferland Mendy and David Alaba, though Rodrygo is pushing to return to fitness in time for this.
Aurelien Tchouameni has recovered from illness and could come back into the Madrid midfield.
Madrid look to be in the better form of the two and have the home advantage for this first leg.
Their last clash here ended in a 3-1 home win and this one can finish up a similar scoreline.
Four of the last five games between the two have had four goals in them, so that won't be the issue.
The 10/11 price home Madrid to win probably not worth it but 2/1 might offer a bit more value there.
