El Clasico 2018: Date and time confirmed for Barcelona vs Real Madrid at Camp Nou

La Liga president Javier Tebas has said that the second Clasico of the season will be held on Sunday 6th May at 8.45 pm (CET).

Tebas was talking on Cadena SER’s ‘El Larguero’ programme and said the kick off time was to appease the American market, with the game in December having started at 1pm.

Barcelona won that game at the Santiago Bernabeu 3-0 thanks to goals from Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi and Aleix Vidal.

After the game Barcelona will have only three La Liga matches left against Villarreal, Levante and Real Sociedad, so the Clasico may have a bearing on the title race.
