Barcelona got a solid win over bitter rivals Real Madrid in a pre-season El Classico match to extend their unbeaten pre-season run. Hansi Flick’s emphasis on pressing helped rejuvenate the team's dynamics, while Pau Victor provide two crucial goals. Fans will definitely want to see more of him in the upcoming season. 

Like Barcelona, Milan defeated Real Madrid and are yet to lose a pre-season match. New coach Paulo Fonseca will be desperate to close the gap on rivals Inter Milan given the 19 point difference last season, so beating both Spanish giants could be a huge statement. Milan fans will be happy to hear that Rafael Leao will be returning for the match on Tuesday. 

Barcelona XI: M. ter Stegen, Á. Valle, A. Christensen, C. Lenglet, G. Martín, M. Casadó, İ. Gündoğan, P. Víctor, S. Domínguez, Raphinha, R. Lewandowski. 

AC Milan XI: L. Torriani, F. Terracciano, M. Thiaw, F. Tomori, A. Saelemaekers, S. Chukwueze, R. Loftus-Cheek, Y. Musah, L. Jović, R. Leão, C. Pulisic.
