Spanish giants Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid will eye the spot in the finals of the Spanish Super Cup as the two local rivals clash take on each other this Wednesday. The Los Blancos will be eager to come on top, with the side losing out to arch-rivals Barcelona in the previous tournament. Carlo Ancelotti’s men have been in sublime form in their ongoing campaign and will fancy their chances heading into the fixture.

However, things have been rough for Atletico Madrid heading into this fixture. The team has managed just two wins out of their last five fixtures and will have to put everything on the line to defeat their opponents. The winner of the clash will face either Barcelona or Osasuna in the finals of the tournament.

Both sides have been in sketchy form coming into the fixture, with Los Blancos holding a slighter edge over Diego Simeone’s men. The Rojiblancos have failed to find consistency this season, which could be visible in this coming fixture, with Diego Simeone likely to rely on his resilient sit-back and counter-tactics. However, Real has what it takes to breach Atletico’s defense and should emerge victorious in what could be a low-scoring affair.

One take at a time

While soccer was never my first love, I never realized when I turned into an avid fan who jumps at every missed goal-scoring opportunity. I'm a passionate Borussia Dortmund fan despite my side not lifting the league title in the last twelve years. I love to talk about tiny aspects of the game, discussing every little detail.
