It's starting to look like Real Madrid and Barcelona are going to be playing a game of trying to match each other's results until they finally meet up again in the Clásico. After Madrid's win over Depor on Saturday, Barca will look to re-close the gap at the top of the table to single point with a win over Levante at the Camp Nou.

Barca have been on fire of late, winners of ten straight matches in all competitions since a loss against Real Sociedad had many wondering if the wheels were falling off the Blaugrana's season. Instead, Luis Enrique's side have settled down and become the dominating force, especially on the attack, that many expected.
Levante managed to get out of last place with their 4-1 win over Málaga, their first victory in ten league tries, last weekend. Getting points against Barca will be a tall task, especially when you consider that Barca hammered them 5-0 in the first meeting back in September.
The match will mark Lionel Messi’s 300th league appearance for Barcelona, but they’ll be without two starters. Andres Iniesta is struggling with a case of the flue, while Dani Alves is serving a one-match ban for card accumulation.
