The latest team news emerging from Spain this Sunday morning is that Barcelona forwards Lionel Messi and Zlatan Ibrahimovic are still doubtful for the "El Clasico" with Real Madrid this evening.

Both Messi and Ibrahimovic took part and completed a training session yesterday but will undergo further tests this morning to see if they can take on the Primera Division league leaders.

Ibrahimovic has a hamstring injury in his left thigh, whilst Messi also picked up a thigh injury in the draw with Athletic Bilbao last week.

Pep Guardiola will make a final decision on both forwards in a behind-the-scenes training session later on today.

Real Madrid have a major doubt over Raul Albiol who picked up a knee injury in midweek in the Champions League win over FC Zurich. Christoph Metzelder, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Guti have all been left out the squad due to injury and Fernando Gago was not selected by Manuel Pellegrini.
