Even away from LaLiga, El Clasico remains a spectacle. While the Supercopa de Espana is hardly the trophy either side will be desire most between the end of the season, the winner will certainly be making a statement of intent.
The LaLiga title race is looking like a far closer event than in recent years and a victor could take a psychological advantage heading into the second half of the season. Madrid overcame Valencia to reach the final as they attempt to defend their crown, while Barca – who last won the competition in 2018- beat Betis.
