BARCELONA (Reuters) - Real Madrid will not hold back in El Clasico against Barcelona at Camp Nou on Sunday as they bid to close a nine-point gap their arch-rivals at the top of LaLiga.
Barca would take a huge step towards winning their first title for four years by beating the champions for the third time in a row.
"What I see is a very solid Barca, a team who concedes very little, with an important collective commitment. They suffered a little more than usual but won that game," Ancelotti said. Coach Xavi Hernandez expects his back line will be tested by Real but is confident of causing them problems.
