After the explosive 2023-2024 season across Europe, the first trophy of the new 2024-2025 season will be awarded in Warsaw (Poland), after the European Super Cup. Champions League champion - Real Madrid , facing Europa League champion - Atalanta.
With 5 Super Cups already in their trophy cabinet, Real Madrid will confirm themselves as the most successful team on this front if they win tonight. At that time, they will surpass AC Milan and Barcelona - two teams that also have 5 European Super Cups.
Surely many people will see that the trophy is unlikely to escape Real Madrid's hands in the 9th time they have played the Super Cup, especially considering the form they showed last season, culminating in the victory over Dortmund in the Champions League final at Wembley.
Real Madrid have not lost an official match since being eliminated from the Copa Del Rey in extra time against Atletico Madrid in January (18 wins, 8 draws). The last time Los Blancos lost within 90 minutes was against Atletico last September.
With Atalanta, of course, they must find a way to reverse predictions to overthrow Galácticos. Compared to tradition, with 2 trophies in the tradition room, Atalanta is of course too small compared to Real Madrid.
The way Atalanta won the 2023-2024 Europa League trophy to end a 61-year drought was also remarkable, when they won 3-0 against Bayer Leverkusen, the team that was unbeaten in 51 matches before entering the final. .
That glory confirmed Atalanta's position as the 41st team to appear in the European Super Cup. Meaning, this is the fourth consecutive season that a new team has joined.
However, history shows that Atalanta will face pressure, when 2 of the 3 most recent participating teams - Villarreal and Frankfurt, both lost.
