Looking Ahead: Head-to-Heads and into February

As mentioned, both teams have one fixture remaining in January.

Fair to say that either player might prove conclusive in it, as it happens to be a Clasico fixture with the two giants meeting in the Copa del Rey semifinal on Jan. 30. The second leg is in late February at the Nou Camp.

Barcelona won last season's Spanish Cup and will be eager to not relinquish their crown against their biggest rivals. But on the other hand, it could be that the cup is Real's biggest chance of a trophy this season.

Into next month, Barcelona face away trips to the likes of Granada and Valencia, as well as the first leg of their Champions League last 16 match against AC Milan.

Real Madrid host surprise package Rayo Vallecano at home, travel to Granada (tough month for them) and also have Champions League action against Manchester United.

Who will hit the most goals and contribute the most to their team during the second month of 2013?
