| Kylian Mbappe c/o LALIGA |
The upcoming ELCLASICO on Sunday morning will be another special moment in a rivalry filled with them, as it will be Kylian Mbappé’s first game as a Madridista against Barça.
It will be the Frenchman's first major acid test in LALIGA EASPORTS play, as he missed the Madrid derby due to injury.
Since that absence, he has been on a roll for the defending champions, having scored in their last LALIGA game at the Estadio ABANCA Balaídos against RC Celta, raising his tally to six goals so far this season. He also is a provider, having issued the assist to Antonio Rüdiger's in their Champions League encounter against Borussia Dortmund, which kickstarted their second half dominance in the rematch of the final.
Kylian hopes that his form against Los Azulgranas when he was at PSG keeps up, now that he is wearing Madrid colors. In four matches against Barça previously, he has scored in three of those matchups, putting six goals towards the back of the net.
Mbappé is determined to make his ELCLASICO debut a memorable one with a triumph, highlighting why he is among the best of the world. He will have to deal with a rival that is currently atop of the league, one that plays a high line for their attack. Kylian and his teammates aim to take advantage of such play with their pace, as they hope to extend their winning streak in ELCLASICO matches to five across all competitions, and seven of the last ten LALIGA meetings.
