Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo failed to make the cut
No Ronaldo. No Bale. So who does make the El Clasico combined XI according to the stats?
There is arguably no bigger clash in world football than Real Madrid versus Barcelona, with the two giants of Spanish and indeed European football going head-to-head for the first time this season live on Sky Sports on Saturday.
Both teams are steeped in talent - but which players would make a combined XI?
We've asked WhoScored.com to reveal the best combined XI between the sides based on their statistically calculated league ratings - and there were some shock omissions!
Read on to see who did - and who didn't - make the cut…
Keylor Navas (Real Madrid) - 7.55 rating
Real Madrid's Keylor Navas gets the nod in goal
His Real Madrid future may have been shrouded in doubt this summer but after Los Blancos' attempts to sign David de Gea from Manchester United failed the Costa Rican was keen to prove worthy of replacing club legend Iker Casillas. He's certainly done that so far, picking up the highest rating of any goalkeeper in Europe's top five leagues having conceded just three goals in nine league appearances, saving penalties against Real Betis and in the derby with Atletico.
