For the fourth consecutive year, Barcelona and Real Madrid meet in the Spanish Super Cup final, where the winner will lift the first major trophy of the 2025–26 campaign.
Just one year ago, the bitter rivals faced off in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia for the Spanish Super Cup crown, a match utterly dominated by the Catalans. Barcelona’s 5–2 victory handed Hansi Flick the first trophy of his reign in Spain, a precursor for the La Liga and Copa del Rey titles he added come the end of the season.
Real Madrid are all-too eager for redemption, and Xabi Alonso’s men will draw inspiration and confidence from their 2–1 Clásico victory back in October. The result is one the defending champions hope to rectify, injecting Sunday’s final with a burning desire for revenge from both sides.
Here’s how you can watch the Spanish Super Cup final on TV and live stream.
