The world is likely to be watching. After the stunning Champions league win this week, the first competitive El Clásico of the 2024/25 season is here. It's being played at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, where FC Barcelona will be wearing the Coldplay symbol on the front of the blaugrana jersey. No doubt this is a hotly anticipated clash, even more so when there are only three points separating Real Madrid from Barça in the league table.
The match kicks off at 9.00pm CEST on 26 October and this guide should help you work out what time that will be in your part of the world.
