In the midst of a controversial 2025 Copa del Rey final preview, FC Barcelona set the pace in the game against Real Madrid. Pedri even scored an impressive goal to make the difference in the offense and put Hansi Flick's team ahead.

Real Madrid's season and Barcelona's treble hopes hang in the balance as the two sides meet Saturday in the Copa del Rey final. With games coming thick and fast as we reach the run in of the season, both sides will have injury issues to deal with when it comes to setting up for the match.

Barcelona will be without striker Robert Lewandowski and defender Alejandro Balde for the Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid on Saturday. Both players are sidelined with hamstring issues sustained earlier in April and have not been included in Hansi Flick’s 22-player squad for the weekend’s game.
