Barcelona host Realmadrid in Camp Nou on sunday in what is described as the clash of titans.
Both teams are competiting for the la liga title as barcelona tops the league with just a point above their rivals Real madrid, while reigning champions Atletico Madrid have dropped off the pace in recent weeks.
Barcelona outstanding display with the superb performance of Lionel Messi against Manchester city in Uefa champions league round of 16, will boost their chances on sunday against Ancelotti men.
The two clubs have enjoyed a fierce rivalry throughout their illustrious histories and every year this fixture demands even more global attention.
"We know that there's a lot of pressure, but that's normal because it's a huge match," Benzema told Real sponsor bwin's official website. "Every player who loves football wants to play in it.
"We're going to prepare well for the match, all together, to go to Barcelona and win. We're only thinking about working hard to win together, as always. If we defend well we can do it.
"We can repeat the result from the first half of the season. We're in good shape to win and put in a performance like the one we put in.
"We're Real Madrid. To score again like I did in our first meeting of the season, I need a bit of luck and nothing else."
Sunday's game sees world football's two most fearsome attacking trios go head to head as Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez go up against Ronaldo, Benzema and Gareth Bale.
