Real Madrid will face Barcelona in an El Clasico final of the Spanish Super Cup at the King Saud University Stadium (Mrsool Park) in Saudi Arabia.

Both teams secured their spots in the highly anticipated final, with Carlo Ancelotti’s squad clinching a 5-3 victory in the Madrid derby against Atlético Madrid and the Catalan super team securing a 2-0 win over Osasuna.

In a previous encounter, the perennial rivals Real Madrid and Barcelona faced off in the Spanish Super Club final at the King Fahd Sport City Stadium in Riyadh in 2023.

Barcelona emerged victorious with a 3-1 win over Real Madrid.

The Kingdom has previously hosted two editions of the Spanish Super Cup, the first in 2020 in Jeddah and the second in 2022 in Riyadh, with Real Madrid claiming both titles.

The hosting of the Spanish Super Cup in the Kingdom, organised by the Ministry of Sports, aligns with the Quality of Life Programme, one of the Saudi Vision 2030 Realisation Programmes.

This initiative aims to bolster the Kingdom’s standing as a premier destination for global mega events, enhancing the overall quality of life for its residents and visitors alike.
