Sports Mole looks at how Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappe has performed against Barcelona during his professional career, as he prepares for his first taste of El Clasico.

Kylian Mbappe will have his first taste of El Clasico on Saturday night, as Real Madrid welcome Barcelona in Spain's top flight.

The France international made a high-profile move to Bernabeu on a free transfer over the summer, and he has had a successful start to his career with the Spanish giants, scoring eight times and registering two assists in 13 appearances in all competitions.

The 25-year-old has found the back of the net on six occasions in nine La Liga appearances, in addition to registering one assist, while he has one goal and one assist in three outings in the Champions League during the 2024-25 campaign.

Mbappe failed to find the back of the net in his first three league games for Real Madrid, but he has managed six goals in his last six matches, and the Frenchman will now be aiming to inspire his side to a victory over Barcelona.

Here, Sports Mole takes a look at how the ex-Monaco youngster has performed against Los Blancos during his professional career, as he does have previous with the capital side.

Mbappe has tackled Barcelona on four occasions during his professional career, and in his first-ever appearance against the Catalan outfit, he struck a famous hat-trick.

Indeed, the ex-Monaco youngster netted three times against the La Liga giants in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 affair back in 2021, with Paris Saint-Germain recording a 4-1 victory at Camp Nou.

Mbappe then netted once in the return leg in Paris, with the French giants drawing 1-1 in order to advance to the quarter-finals of the competition courtesy of a 5-2 aggregate success.

The Frenchman played the full 90 minutes against Barcelona in the first leg of their European Cup quarter-final on April 10, 2024, but he found it difficult to make his mark in a 3-2 loss for the Paris giants.

Mbappe starred in the reverse game, though, netting twice as PSG recorded a 4-1 victory to advance to the semi-finals.

The forward's record against Barcelona therefore stands at two wins, one draw and one defeat from four games, scoring six times in the process, but this will be his first appearance against the Catalan giants since his arrival at Real Madrid. body check tags ::
