El Clasico Barcelona vs Real Madrid: What time does it start, what TV channel is it on, where can I watch it?
A look ahead to the La Liga clash at the Nou Camp
What time does it start?
The 232nd Clasico between Barcelona and Real Madrid will be held on Saturday 3 December at 3.15pm GMT at the Nou Camp, Barcelona.
Where can I watch it?
Unfortunately, it will not be shown on television in the UK.
You will, however, be able to follow The Independent’s live coverage on our blog.
Why is it not on TV?
It is illegal to broadcast live football matches on UK television between 2.45pm and 5.15pm on Saturdays due to the potential impact on match attendances.
Ironically, the 3.15pm kick-off time was chosen in order to maximise the global television audience.

What does the league table look like?
Predictably, these two sit at the top of La Liga, but it’s the reigning Spanish champions who are playing catch up.
Barcelona are five points off Real Madrid, who remain unbeaten in all competitions under Zinedine Zidane this season.
Luis Enrique's side have already lost twice in the league, against Alaves and Celta Vigo, and suffered defeat to Manchester City in Champions League.
What happened last time?

La Liga, April 2016

One of the more memorable Clasico's in recent years saw Barcelona's 39-game unbeaten run ended by a depleted Real Madrid at Nou Camp.
Cristiano Ronaldo's late strike granted victory to the visitors, who had seen Sergio Ramos pick up a customary red card just minutes earlier.
Gerard Pique's header had put Barça ahead, only for Karim Benzema to level with an acrobatic finish.
The three points did not help Real's wiltering title challenge but Los Blancos were spurred on the Champions League glory, which came against rivals Atletico in Milan a month later.

Kick-off! We're under way at the Nou Camp!
2 min: The first excessive tackle comes from Sergio Ramos, unsurprisngly. He goes in forcefully on Lionel Messi, no free-kick though.
3 min: Penalty shout for Madrid!
Javier Mascherano goes in rough on Lucas Vazquez. The referee waves play on, much to Vazquez's disbelief.
7 min: Madrid are tight, compact and looking like they won't give the hosts a spare inch this afternoon.
9 min: First big opening of the game for Barcelona!
Lovely first-time play from the hosts, who eventually work the ball out to Sergi Roberto at the far post.
He attempts to cut back across the face of goal but the ball strikes Ramos. There are handball shouts and it certainly hits the defender's arm, but hard to say that was intentional.
11 min: Sergio Busquets has started brilliantly.
He unlocks Madrid's defensive line once again with a superb ball over the top, but Luis Suarez has moved slightly too soon and is flagged offside.
On that penalty shout against Mascherano earlier, seems like he was a lucky boy.
13 min: Yellow card for Isco, fouls Neymar late.
First sight of goal for Cristiano Ronaldo, who flicks a header from just inside the penalty area.
Marc-Andre ter Stegen, making his first Clasico appearance, holds it easily.
18 min: Free-kick to Barcelona after a foul by Luka Modric, Messi steps up but sees his effort gathered by Keylor Navas.
