Match Preview
For the second straight season, the Supercopa de Espana will see Real Madrid and Barcelona lock horns in Saudi Arabia. Barcelona landed success in the final last year, with Robert Lewandowski and Pedri netting in a 3-1 success. However, that win ended a four-match winning sequence in matches between the sides in the Supercopa.
Real Madrid have already landed victory against Barcelona this season, as they recorded a dramatic 2-1 success in the first El Clasico this term. Jude Bellingham was the hero in that fixture, as the England international scored two excellent goals in the final half an hour to mark a memorable first appearance in the famous fixture.

Real played out a thrilling match in their semi-final clash earlier in the week, as eight goals were shared with Atletico Madrid. However, it was Real that came through with a 5-3 success after extra time. The important efforts in the additional period were netted by Joselu and Brahim Diaz with just four minutes remaining of the extra time period.
It was a slightly more professional display by Barcelona in their semi-final against Osasuna on Thursday, as they landed a 2-0 success. Lewandowski opened the scoring after 59 minutes, before Lamine Yamal added the second in the dying seconds of injury time. But, it has set up a thrilling El Clasico in prospect this weekend.
Real Madrid vs Barcelona Prediction
This should be a high-quality showdown between the two Spanish giants this weekend. However, we will be siding with Real continuing their recent dominance in El Clasico by landing a 3-1 success in Saudi Arabia.
