All indications place FC Barcelona as the ideal contender to clinch their fifth Super Cup title this Sunday. Before that, they will have to eliminate Atlético de Madrid today in the semi-finals in Leganés (7:00 p.m.).
This match against Atlético de Madrid marks the first semi-final of the 2025 Spanish Women’s Super Cup, which kicks off at 7:00 p.m. (local time). Barcelona, considered the big favorite for the title which will be played on Sunday at 12:00 p.m., will first have to overcome the challenge of eliminating their rivals at the Butarque stadium in Leganés, like last year’s final.
Memories of the national title won there last year are still fresh for the Catalans, and coach Pere Romeu should have his team in full force. The key question remains whether Romeu will play Graham in this semi-final or whether she will be booked for a potentially predictable final.
The last meeting between the two teams took place in early November in Liga F, where Barcelona recorded a convincing 3-0 victory at the Wanda Sports Center in Alcalá de Henares, with goals from Aitana, Graham and Patri.

Despite this, the team is in excellent form as the season reaches its climax, with Romeu pleased with how his players have integrated his strategies, while looking to win his first title as head coach.
-The winner of this meeting will face either Real Madrid or Real Sociedad, who are competing for the other place in the final on Thursday (7 p.m.). Predictions point to another Clásico in the final, although tonight’s encounter between Barcelona and Atlético promises to be a true classic in the history of Spanish women’s football.

Barcelona are clearly the dominant force in this competition with four titles, ahead of Levante, who won two in the late 1990s. Since 2020, Barcelona have won every Super Cup, except for 2021, where they were eliminated in the semi-final by Atlético due to controversial refereeing. Tonight they aim to take the first step towards continuing their successful journey in Spanish women’s football.
Despite the short notice regarding the venue and dates communicated by the RFEF, Barcelona fans are expected to show their support this Wednesday, with a larger contingent expected for the final this weekend.
