El Clasico: 5 reasons why Real Madrid will destroy Barcelona this weekend

#2 Fully fit Madrid squad

Madrid have a fully-fit squad

It is very hard to recall the last time the Blancos had a fully-fit squad at their disposal. The French manager has had to shuffle around his first XI because he had something hindering his team in almost every game.

It started with the injury of Jesus Vallejo—the first casualty of the season—and after that, it was like dominoes tumbling over one after the other. Indeed, at one point it looked like Madrid would have to end up playing their Castilla players—and that is despite having such a complete squad.

However, after what seems like ages, the Galacticos finally have some stability in terms of fitness. Zidane now has a fully fit squad to choose from, a welcome headache for the former Juventus player—something he has been bereft of for quite a long while now.
