The political and social situation in Catalonia forced the postponement of one of the most-watched football matches in the world.
Scheduled for October 26th, Barça-Real Madrid was reinstated in the calendar and its dispute is set for December 18th.
Both clubs agreed on that date and, if everything follows its normal course, the duel will be played at the Camp Nou.
However, as of 29 November, Real Madrid are not all that comfortable with the current organisation of the event.
According to Spanish newspaper 'Marca', Real Madrid are not guaranteed a security plan as of yet.
The team's concern is not so much about the game itself or what could happen on Barcelona's pitch; they are instead much more worried about the drive from the hotel to the stadium itself.
The source indicates that the Madrid team is still awaiting confirmation regarding the security in place for the day of the match.
In addition, to avoid the maximum possible disturbances, Real Madrid will travel to Barcelona the same day of the encounter.
