García's Clásico history

The form of the attackers
Mbappé has scored nine goals in his first nine matches of the season. [2] Raphinha is the league's top scorer with 12 goals, ahead of Mbappé. [2]

Barcelona after Paris
Barcelona's Clásico comes after a defeat in the Champions League against PSG. [2] Barcelona has lost only one of its 12 official matches this season and has a perfect LaLiga record. [1]
García said he admitted that the defeat in Paris was not part of the team's plans, and he praised the team's competitive spirit. [1] He said the squad is suited to compete in all three competitions and that the main goal is to believe in themselves and work hard. [1]
