The Real Madrid coach is not happy Barça have more rest this weekend

Real Madrid coach Santiago Solari has once again insinuated that the schedule favours Barcelona ahead of this week's back-to-back Clasicos. 

Barcelona travel to Madrid on Wednesday to take on Solari's side in the Copa del Rey semifinal and are back at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday in the league. 

Before that, Barca play Sevilla on Saturday away from home and Madrid travel to Levante on Sunday, which Solari feels clearly favours the Catalans. 

“The calendar is curious and entertaining," the coach said in a press conference on Saturday. "We take it on as a big challenge, to play in different conditions.”

That was Solair's way of complaining about the calendar. He made similar comments before the first leg of the Copa semifinal at Camp Nou -- which ended 1-1 -- as Barça also had an extra day rest. 

However, the fixtures on that occasion had been arranged before the draw for the Spanish cup last four had even taken place.
