Although there is still just over a month until the 2026/27 LaLiga season kicks off, the league body has already defined the schedule for all 38 matchdays across the 20 top-division teams. Among them, Real Madrid and Barcelona now know the dates for their two meetings.

First Leg: Matchday 10

This season's league Clásico will be especially intriguing due to the return of José Mourinho to the Camp Nou bench — a ground he has not set foot on since leaving Real Madrid in 2013.

The Barcelona vs. Real Madrid match will take place on matchday 10 at the Camp Nou, scheduled for the weekend of October 25, 2026.

This first-leg Clásico will mark the first managerial clash between Hansi Flick and José Mourinho. Real Madrid aims to win in azulgrana territory, where they have not triumphed since October 2023.

Second Leg: Matchday 35

The return Clásico will be played just four matchdays before the end of the season, on matchday 35, at the Santiago Bernabéu, on the weekend of May 9, 2027.
