The first hugely anticipated Clásico of the 2019/20 season between Barcelona and Real Madrid has been postponed over fears of potential civil unrest.
The game had been scheduled to take place at Camp Nou later this month, but rather than switch it to Madrid's Bernabeu, the huge encounter will reportedly be rescheduled for a date in December.
However, there remain conflicting preferences between La Liga and the federation’s competition committee over an exact date, with a decision to be made next week.
There have been concerns that the original 26 October date for the fixture could see the game engulfed by major protests against the recent sentencing of Catalan separatist leaders relating to the controversial 2017 independence referendum.
