Carlo Ancelotti spoke to the media in the press room at Real Madrid City on the eve of the Clásico:

“We're motivated, it's an important, special game, as is always the case with the Clásico. It's the first one of the season and there will be more to come because they are several competitions. We're in good shape and we're hugely excited to put on a good display. We're in good spirits; this is the perfect time to play a big game.”

“Just like the derby, there are no favourites in the Clásico. We're in good form and we're hungry to play. They're looking strong as well and it's going to be a brilliant game, hard-fought as ever. I hope the fans enjoy it."

"Bellingham is fine, fully recovered, he'll play tomorrow. He did a recuperation session yesterday and they've dealt with the strain. Professionals watch every game and he is well aware of what the Clásico is about. It's a fixture watched by everyone, it's one of the biggest games there is."

“It's an important game, there are three points at stake, but this is a big one in the team's dynamic, and for the fans too. It's a long season and it's far too early to say this will be a decisive game in terms of the points. It's significant in other ways. There are lots of teams in the mix in LaLiga, like Girona and Atlético and it will be hard-fought until the end."
