The Frenchman says that Jose Mourinho's financial resources has given his team an advantage over their bitter rivals, but feels that there is no favourite for Saturday's ClasicoSporting Gijon defender Gregory Arnolin has claimed that Real Madrid are better than Barcelona at present as the two giants prepare to face off on Saturday at the Santiago Bernabeu.Arnolin was in the starting line-up last weekend when Jose Mourinho's side ran out 3-0 victors at El Molinon, and was an unused substitute when his side lost 1-0 to the Catalan club in October.Having seen both teams in action, the 31-year-old is left without any doubt that los Blancos are the superior side with a more complete squad. "Right now it's Real, there's no discussion. It's the same for me, Barcelona are the best team in the world. We must remember that Real are superior at the moment, notably thanks to their coffers," he told Goal.com in an exclusive."I'll give you an example. Against us, [Gonzalo] Higuain went off and [Karim] Benzema came on. [Mesut] Ozil went off and Kaka came on. With Barca, if David Villa goes off, it's [Isaac] Cuenca who takes his place." As for Saturday's match, Arnolin stated his belief that there is no clear favourite, and that a Real Madrid win would not guarantee them the title. "There is no favourite for me. In my opinion, it will be equal. Perhaps 51-49 in Real Madrid's favour, no more. There is no champion in December. Especially in La Liga."
