Tonight, we can expect a real spectacle as part of the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia, where the city rivals Real and Atletico will face each other, with the latter defended by the captain of the Slovenian national team, Jan Oblak.
However, this match won’t be the only one in January, as the Madrid rivals will clash twice within a month. Next week, they’ll meet for the round of 16 in the Spanish Copa del Rey, where the Rojiblancos will be the hosts. Most likely, the last encounter in the current season will take place on February 4th in the La Liga at the Santiago Bernabeu.
It’s worth noting that Atletico remains the only team in all competitions to have defeated their city rival in this season. This will surely motivate the players of the White Ballet to seek revenge for their September defeat at the Metropolitan. Today’s semifinal match of the Spanish Super Cup will kick off at 8 PM.
