El Clásico date and kickoff time confirmed

The date and kickoff time for next month's LaLiga El Clásico has been announced. The game between Barça and Real Madrid will take place at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium on October 26 at 9.00pm CEST. Technically the second El Clásico of the season, this will be the first time Real Madrid and Barça meet competitively this season, fulfilling the matchday 11 fixture of the domestic competition.

It's just over a month until this El Clásico, and it is sandwiched between hosting first Bayern Munich for a Champions League game (23/10, kickoff 9pm CEST), followed by Espanyol in LaLiga (3/11, kickoff time to be confirmed).
