The Spanish El Clasico is about to start, and World Sports News is also building momentum for Yamal before the game.

The article wrote that the young Barcelona winger performed well against Real Madrid last season, scoring three goals and assisting two in four games. The Barcelona youth player often performs better against arch-rivals Real Madrid: his shots are more efficient, his selections are more precise, and he loses less possession of the ball.

Yamal seems to be born for the big scene. He likes challenges and pressure fuels his fighting spirit. He gave it his all every big chance to play, proving to the world that he wanted to be the best.

El Clasico is no exception. It is the biggest stage and the most watched game in the world. The 18-year-old Yamal has become one of the top players in the world, especially in the past year. He has been the main player in 4 national derbies and won all 4 games, scoring three goals and assisting two.

Although a groin injury affected Yamal's performance at the beginning of the season, his data is still impressive. In seven games played, Yamal was directly involved in eight goals: scoring three himself and assisting five. This figure is very close to the same period last season, when he was involved in nine goals.

"Yamal is not in the best condition", some people commented. But Yamal always stepped up at critical moments. In Sunday's El Clasico, Barcelona expects Yamal to shine again.

Real Madrid is one of Yamal's favorite opponents, and he has scored three goals against Real Madrid, the same number of goals as against Granada, Athletic Bilbao or the French national team.

Every time he faces Real Madrid, Yamal will be activated in a special way. The Barcelona coaching staff clearly knows that Yamal has a "clásico mode", even though he is still only 18 years old.

Yamal’s average goal rate against Real Madrid last season (0.43 goals/game) was higher than the average for the entire season (0.33 goals/game). These nuances illustrate his bloodthirsty instincts against Real Madrid.

Interestingly, when Yamal faced Real Madrid, he took fewer risks: fewer passes and fewer touches, but he also lost the ball less often. Yamal became more cautious and mature against Real Madrid. And when facing the Real Madrid goalkeeper, he is even more efficient.

Although his physical condition is not the best, Yamal is still a nightmare for any team's defense. Currently, Yamal is the player with the most successful dribbles in the five major leagues: 7.38 times per 90 minutes.

Neither Vinicius nor Mbappé can come close to this data, and they are not even in the top 10. Only Rodrygo comes close to this ranking (4th, averaging 5.88 per 90 minutes).

With Yamal's breakthrough ability, ambition and special motivation for the national derby, Barcelona has full confidence in him. Yamal once again sets his sights on Real Madrid. Anything is possible and Madrid know this because they have already experienced the nightmare that Yamal created.
