The name of the winner of the Spanish Super Cup will be known after Sunday’s Clasico. As in the last two finals of the competition, Real Madrid and FC Barcelona are opposed on the last step before lifting the trophy. The reigning Spanish champion faces his runner-up after a rather close semi-final.
At what time and on which channel to watch Real Madrid – Barça, Spanish Super Cup final
The Saudi Arabia Clasico will be broadcast on L’Équipe Live Foot, Sunday January 12 at 8 p.m., live for subscribers.
Real Madrid, with its fiery trio
Scorer against Mallorca in the semi-final, Jude Bellingham seems to be the man in form for this reigning European champion team. Even if he was almost sent off at the end of the match in the semi-final against Mallorca (3-0 victory), the Englishman, scorer and decisive passer, will be present on the pitch on Sunday. He should be supported by the Rodrygo-Mbappé-Vinicius trio in attack against the Catalans. Carlo Ancelotti will still have to be wary of a team that beat him 0-4 on home soil last October in La Liga. During this meeting, Kylian Mbappé was caught offside on multiple occasions against a very skilful defense in playing high and at the right tempo.

Barça is counting on its young prodigies
Lamine Yamal (17 years old), Pau Cubarsi (17 years old), Gavi (20 years old), Baldé (21 years old) and Pedri (22 years old) represent the new generation of Barça, destined to shine in the coming years. A title in the Spanish Super Cup would allow these young nuggets to grow further and gain confidence, if they needed it, in themselves. In the semi-final against Athletic Club de Bilbao, the Catalans conceded several hot chances, but Wojciech Szczęsny was imperial in the cages. It remains to be seen whether he will play in the final or whether Hansi Flick will line up the young Iñaki Peña as he has since Ter Stegen’s injury. Dani Olmo will also be able to play after being registered with La Liga on Thursday. He should do well in the midfield, behind the Lamal-Lewandowski-Raphinha trio.
3rd in La Liga, Barça is counting on this final to strike a big blow and gain psychological ascendancy over its main rival. Currently, the Catalan club is the one that has won the most Spanish Super Cups (14, compared to 13 for Real Madrid).
