Alvaro Arbeloa says that the "El Clasico" match between Madrid and Barcelona clubs means much more than just three points.

Joining Real last season, the Spaniard stated: "Certainly, beating the Barcelona team is extremely important for all of us.

"Catalans are our biggest rivals in Spain. We understand perfectly what a victory at Camp Nou stadium would mean, so we set ourselves such a goal and hope for success."

And he added: "I think these are the two best teams in the world, each having its own style of play. They are not similar, but both have a chance. I couldn't say that one team is better than the other, they are just different."
