    El Clasico: How to pick the winning Fantasy XI?

    What's the story

    Barcelona have already won La Liga but Real Madrid will show no mercy tonight.

    On the other hand, Barcelona would look to give the perfect farewell to their captain Iniesta.

    Real can turn out to be party-poopers and Barcelona's unbeaten run this season could motivate them to give it all tonight.

    So who should you pick in your Fantasy XI?

    Formation

    Three-man frontline

    We have opted to go for a 3-4-3 line up keeping in mind the plethora of talent on display tonight.

    The midfield and the front three will be doing most of the work, hence we have decided to go for a 4 man midfield to aide the 3 stellar forwards we have.

    Three man defense completes this line-up.

    Forwards

    Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Cristiano Ronaldo

    If you are talking about the El Clasico, you have two of the best players in world football at your disposal.

    Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are no-brainers in this Fantasy XI.

    Either of the two or both will definitely score a goal on the big occasion tonight.

    Luis Suarez will be our third forward in this XI.

    Midfield

    Iniesta, Modric, Rakitic and Kroos

    This is Iniesta's final Clasico and Barcelona will ensure their captain has a memorable one tonight.

    Iniesta might also be on penalty duties. Modric, Rakitic and Toni Kroos will be the other men orchestrating the midfield.

    A lot of the ball will be played on the centre of the park and expect these guys to do most of the work.

    Defence

    Sergio Ramos, Pique and Umtiti

    There will be plenty of goals tonight and hence we have opted for a 3 man defense to minimize our loses.

    Pique and Ramos are both strong in the air and should make good targets for corners and if they are lucky could also find themselves on the score-sheet.

    Umtiti will be the third centre-back. His pace is going to be of great help.

    Captain and vice-captain

    Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo

    These two men live for the big nights and El Clasico is where they bring their A game.

    Messi has been the top performer in the El Clasico over the years and we fancy him to score more than just a goal tonight hence he will be our captain.

    Ronaldo's red-hot form is the reason why we have opted to make him our vice-captain

    Done!
