Spanish Supercopa, 8-12 January 2020

Spanish Supercopa 2020

In an unprecedented event, the Spanish Supercopa will now not only feature four teams instead of just the La Liga champions and the winners of the Copa del Rey. It will also take place in Saudi Arabia for the first time, though previous editions have been played in Morocco as well, much to the dismay of notably a lot of the players involved. Adding extra games with extra travel does not seem to be in their favour, but after all, this is part of what they get paid for.

The semifinal line-up is as follows:

Wednesday 8 January 2020

Valencia CF vs. Real Madrid

Thursday 9 January 2020

FC Barcelona vs. Atlético de Madrid

And the teams travel like this:

Real Madrid
