El-Clasico stats since Messi left Barcelona

Since Lionel Messi left his first team FC Barcelona in 2021, Barcelona have played 15 games against Real Madrid in El-Clasico football matches. Barcelona won 8 times while losing 7 times in those games.

Oct 26, 2025, 4:17 AM3 min read

Lionel Messi left FC Barcelona in August 2021 and joined PSG. Later he joined Inter Miami from PSG.

Barcelona's record-goal scorer Lionel Messi remained the face of the Catalan giants throughout his trophy-laden stint at Camp Nou, especially his terrific contributions in El-Clasico.

Often dubbed as one of the greatest footballers in the history of the beautiful game, goal-machine Messi used to run rings around Real Madrid even when his Ballon d'Or arch-rival Cristiano Ronaldo was at the peak of his powers.

There is no denying that the golden era of El Clasico came to an end when Ronaldo left Santiago Bernabeu in 2018.

Three years after Ronaldo's sensational transfer to Juventus, record-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi made headlines when he ended his long association with FC Barcelona in 2021.

After Messi joined Kylian Mbappe and Neymar at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), arch-rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid played out the first-ever Clasico without Messi or Ronaldo in the 2021/22 season since 2007.

El-Clasico: How many times have Barcelona defeated Madrid without Messi?

El-Clasico stats since Messi left Barcelona | sportzpoint.com

Not just Ronaldo, Messi has an edge over all La Liga icons when it comes to playing El-Clasico matches in the Spanish top flight. With 26 goals for Barcelona, Messi left Camp Nou as the all-time top goalscorer in the history of El-Clasico.

In his final Clasico appearance, Messi failed to inspire Barcelona as Real Madrid battled past Blaugrana at the Bernabeu in 2021. Since Messi's transfer to PSG, Barcelona have met Real Madrid in 12 competitive games.

In those 15 El-Clasico games, Barcelona won 8 times while Real Madrid won 7 times. None of those games has been drawn

El-Clasico: Head to Head Stats | sportzpoint.com

El Clasico refers to a match between two of Spain's biggest teams, FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. The rivalry goes beyond the football field as Madrid, the capital of Spain and Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia's autonomous community, have shared their fair share of political tension over the years. 

Initially, the term was only used for the matches in the domestic Spanish championship, La Liga. Over the years, however, it's been globally recognised for every single meeting, such as in the UEFA Champions League or even domestic cup competitions like the Copa del Rey and Supercopa de España.

With both teams boasting big budgets and reputations that appeal to world-class performers across the planet, their respective ranks have been loaded with match-winners over the years.

Final verdict

Jude Bellingham after his goal in the Real Madrid vs Juventus FC, UEFA Champions League 2025-26 match | sportzpoint.com

Real Madrid deserved the win and three points. 

They remain undefeated and keep their 100% win rate in the UEFA Champions League this season. Meantime, Juventus will have to look for better options as they have yet to win this season in the tournament.

It was Jude Bellingham's goal that made the difference, and they are now at No.5, even with a 100% win rate.

I hope you enjoyed the coverage. See you in the next match. Good night and take care.

Welcome to the live blog coverage of the UEFA Champions League 2025-26 Group Phase match between FC Barcelona and Olympiacos, taking place tonight at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, Barcelona. Kickoff is set for 6:45 PM CET (10:15 PM IST) on October 21, 2025.

Barcelona comes into this fixture after a dramatic 2-1 comeback win against Girona in La Liga, looking to bounce back from a recent setback in Europe, where they lost narrowly to PSG.

Currently holding a critical playoff spot in the group, Barcelona aims to secure full points to strengthen their campaign and avoid the additional playoff round.

Olympiacos, meanwhile, seeks their first Champions League victory of the season, having struggled for goals but showing a resilient defensive stance.

Barcelona are managing some fitness challenges but still relies heavily on their attacking threat and midfield control to dominate. Olympiacos, Greece’s most successful club and recent Conference League winners, rely on effective counter-attacks and defensive solidity, with key players like Mehdi Taremi, Roman Yaremchuk, and Ayoub El Kaabi expected to pose the main threat.

Stay with this blog for live scores, moment-to-moment updates, player performances, and expert commentary as this important Champions League clash unfolds.
