The next scheduled La Liga meeting between Barcelona and Real Madrid is on Sunday, May 9, 2027, when Real Madrid host Barcelona at the Santiago Bernabéu. The kick-off time has not yet been announced.
The fixture is listed for Matchday 35 of the 2026–27 season. The teams could meet earlier in a cup competition, so May 9 is the date of their next scheduled league meeting, not necessarily their next competitive encounter.

Could Barcelona and Real Madrid meet before May? Yes. The 2027 Spanish Super Cup could bring them together in the final on February 6 in Istanbul, provided Barcelona and Real Madrid both win their respective semi-finals.
Barcelona are scheduled to face Atlético Madrid on February 2, while Real Madrid play Real Sociedad on February 3. The Copa del Rey could also create an earlier meeting, depending on the draw and each club’s progress. For that reason, May 9 should be described as their next scheduled La Liga fixture.
