Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola says tonight's result against Real Madrid will not be decisive in the title race.
Guardiola insists the race for the league title will not end this early in the season.
"It's important, very important, but I don't think it's decisive," explained Guardiola. "There's more than half the season left. There could be injuries, changes in form, there are months like January and February where there are a huge amount of matches and many things can happen.
"They arrive here as leaders and we want to win. But I don't think the result is going to be decisive. Whoever wins tomorrow will not be champions next week."
