Prediction: 1-2
Real Madrid
A place in the Spanish Super Cup final will be at stake when Barcelona and Real Madrid face each other at King Fahd International Stadium on Wednesday evening. Los Blancos are seen as favourites to win El Clasico, but Carlo Ancelotti’s troops will have to prove their worth on the field. All Gareth Bale, Dani Carvajal, and Mariano Diaz are sidelined with injuries, while Luka Jovic misses out through illness.
Barca, on the other hand, dropped two more points in La Liga at the weekend, with the team sharing the spoils with Granada. Gavi is eligible to face Real Madrid despite his sending off at Granada, while January signing Ferran Torres is likely to make his Barcelona debut in the Super Cup clash. Anyhow, away win should be considered as Real Madrid impressed in a 4-1 win over Valencia in their last league match.
Highlighted Player (Luuk de Jong):
The 26-year-old Dutch striker Luuk de Jong is considered one of Europe’s deadliest strikers with his incredible return of goals in games he spends playing. Luuk de Jong began his football career at De Graafschap in 2008, but moved on to Twente only a year later.
The tally of 39 goals in 76 league appearances earned him a transfer to Borussia Monchengladbach, but his spell in Germany ended in disappointment. Bundesliga club attempted to revive his career by sending him out on loan to Newcastle United but his stint with the English club yielded even more disappointment and concluded in utter disaster with De Jong playing 12 games without scoring a single goal for the Magpies.
A return to Netherlands and PSV Eindhoven turned out to be a proper hit for the 26-year-old striker who has restored his scoring touch with more than 50 goals for the Boeren after less than 90 games.
Highlighted Team (Real Madrid):
Real Madrid is a Spanish football club based in Madrid. Real Madrid participate in La Liga (Primera Division) and they have won 32 domestic titles. On the other hand, los Blancos have won 13 European Cup titles and that is the main reason why they are considered the biggest football club in the world.
Real Madrid play their home matches at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu and the capacity of the stadium is 84,454. Cristiano Ronaldo is the club’s most successful footballer in the 21st century and the Portuguese superstar has won two Golden Ball awards.
The likes of Alfredo Di Stefano, Zinedine Zidane, Raul Gonzalez Blanco, David Beckham and Iker Casillas are star players who were part of the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu outfit in the past. Real Madrid’s bitterest rivals are Barcelona, but the rivalry between local rivals Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid is big as well. Real Madrid’s home kit is white and, as a result, the team’s nickname is los Blancos (the Whites).
