Or will Gian Piero Gasperini’s team cause another sensation?
Today, August 14, the UEFA Super Cup match will take place: Real Madrid, the winner of the Champions League, will face Atalanta, the winner of the Europa League. The match will be played in Warsaw. The “Championship” will hold this event online.
There have been few changes at the clubs over the summer, but they are significant. Yes, the coaches remained in their places, but the line-ups had to be changed a bit. Kylian Mbappé finally moved to Real Madrid and Alexey Miranchuk, for example, left Atalanta for the MLS. The clubs are partially bled dry: Madrid can count on David Alaba, and the Bergamo side can count on Rafael Toloi, Giorgio Scalvini and Gianluca Scamacca, who already scored goals in the spring.
The teams met only in the 2021 Champions League playoffs, both games were won by Real Madrid (1-0, 3-1). The history of meetings is not rich, but today it will have a little more texture.
In the off-season, Real Madrid had three losses and only won one (against Chelsea, 2-1). Atalanta played one game less, but did not lose: they beat St. Pauli (3-0) and drew with AZ.
