Barcelona have a strong historical edge in home Clasicos against Real Madrid, with more wins and more goals than their rivals.
The numbers at home
The two clubs have met 96 times in Clasicos staged at Barcelona's ground. Barcelona have won 53 of those matches, while Real Madrid have taken 23 victories away from home.
The scoring gap is wider still. Barcelona have scored 189 goals in those games, compared with Real Madrid's 116, a difference of 73.
History is no guarantee
Those figures do not decide future meetings on their own. Clasicos often turn on current form, the condition of the leading players and tactical details on the day.
Even so, the record shows that Barcelona's home stadium has long been a difficult place for Real Madrid to visit, with the Catalan club repeatedly finding a way to impose itself in the fixture.
