Luis Enrique has insisted that neither side is favourite for this evening's El Clasico match between Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga.

The Catalan side recently moved back above their rivals to regain the lead in the Spanish top flight, but Madrid clinched a 3-1 win in their meeting at the Bernabeu earlier this season.

"It's an important game but not a decisive one," BBC Sport quotes the Barcelona manager as saying.

"These games are certainly different to any others. They are our eternal rivals. There's also our head-to-head goal difference to bear in mind.

"There are no clear favourites in games like these. But playing in front of our own fans always gives us that extra boost. This is a nice chance to put some space between us."

Barcelona are just a point above Real in the La Liga table ahead of the match.
