Real Madrid and Barcelona face a packed schedule in the 2024/25 season.
With both sides competing in the newly formatted UEFA Champions League in the coming months, there will be major demands placed on their respective squads on the back of a busy international summer.
Los Blancos kick off their European title defense at home to VfB Stuttgart with Barcelona heading to Ligue 1 side AS Monaco.
Cup action will feature heavily at the start of 2025 and access to Copa del Rey tickets will be sought after by fans.
The extension of the Champions League means an increase of two games, with the six-match group stage replaced by eight matches in the new league phase.
