The Supercopa de España final will be a repeat of what it was a year ago: Real Madrid against Athletic Club! In 2021, Bilbao still beats the Blancos (1-2) and this year in the final?
The Basques also proved their endurance in the semi-finals: Atletico took an own goal from Unai Simon (62), but Ray Alvarez (77) and Nico Williams (81) turned the game around. The last stages – too late for the “rojiblancos” to turn the tide. The defending Supercopa champion made his way to the final in Riyadh against the defending champion.

On the other hand, Merengues celebrated the night before after beating Barcelona 3-2 in extra time.
The last five LaLiga matches have gone to Real Madrid (including 1-0 and 2-1 this season), Athletic’s last La Liga win was about seven years ago (March 7, 2015), but it’s been there in the Super Cup every year. Before that, when Raul Garcia scored two goals to knock Zinedine Zidane’s team out of the competition.
Will Real Madrid also win the final on Sunday? At least the Whites have better chances, because the royal “ultimate experts” (31 percent) have lost only five of their 16 Supercopa finals, defending champions Athletic have lost two out of five (40 percent), and Atletico have lost five out of seven (71 percent). percent). Only Barcelona have suffered more final defeats overall: 11 out of 24 (46 per cent)!
Curious: Even in the third year of the modified Supercopa, which was held in the form of the “Final Four”, neither the champions nor the cup winners reached the final. So far, the overhaul has been an advantage for teams that were less successful in the previous season.
