How to watch Real Madrid vs Barcelona with US TV channel, live stream details and kick-off time

One week on from being knocked out of the Europa League by Manchester United, Barcelona travel to Real Madrid tonight for the latest edition of El Clásico with a place in the Copa del Rey final on the line.

In what could be considered a final before the actual final itself in two months, the top two teams in La Liga have been drawn against each other at the two-legged semi-final stage of the competition. The other two remaining sides are Athletic Club and Osasuna, the latter of whom were 1-0 winners at home in Wednesday's first leg.

Barcelona currently sit seven points ahead of their rivals from the capital, meaning that progression in this tournament could be Real Madrid's one remaining opportunity to win domestic silverware this season. Carlo Ancelotti's side do, though, remain in the Champions League, and after beating Liverpool 5-2 at Anfield last month, the defending champions are well-placed to reach the quarter-finals once again.
