Zidane confident ahead of today's El Classico

By Daily Sports on April 2, 2016

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane says there is no added pressure on him or his players before today's El Classico with Barcelona at the Nou Camp.

Leaders Barcelona are 10 points clear of their fierce rivals and closing in on a third title in four seasons.

Real, last crowned champions of Spain in 2012, are third in the table with eight games left.

"I'm completely relaxed. This is a game of football - and I am going to enjoy it," said Zidane on Friday.

Rafael Benitez was in charge of Real when Barcelona at the Bernabeu on 21 November, a result that proved the beginning of the end for the former Liverpool boss, who was sacked in Januay after just seven months in charge.

"I'll have no problems at all sleeping tonight," added Zidane, before his first El Clasico in charge.

"It's a game of football and we're in a good dynamic."

Zidane has a near full-strength side to pick from, although defender Raphael Varane missed training on Friday after being injured on international duty with France. (goal.com)
