Real Madrid take on Atalanta in UEFA Super Cup. The match will be played on Wednesday, August 14th at PGE Narodowy (Warsaw).
"Real Madrid" is great and strong, but not without problems. The "Los Blancos" demonstrated last season how wisely Pérez acted by not dismissing Ancelotti after the previous campaign's poor results. Yes, there was a "fly in the ointment" with an early exit from the Copa del Rey, especially at the hands of "Atletico." But before that, they had already won the Supercopa, with a confident victory over "Barcelona." They then overtook both them and, perhaps more surprisingly, "Girona" in the race for the La Liga title. And the crowning achievement was yet another Champions League triumph. It was also the final match for "Los Galacticos" for Joselu, Nacho, and Kroos. Don Florentino finally put an exclamation point on the Mbappé saga and found the funds for Endrick, another Brazilian wonderkid. However, reinforcement in defense and midfield remains nothing more than rumors.

Under Gasperini, the "Bergamaschi" became a significant force in Serie A. However, they were gradually pushed out of the top four as competition in the Calcio grew fierce. To their credit, the management continued to trust Gian Piero, giving him a carte blanche. The previous season was excellent! Though not without some setbacks, as the "Goddess" lost the Coppa Italia final to a struggling "Juventus" (Allegri's farewell match before his dismissal). However, firstly, they secured 4th place in the league. And secondly, they didn't miss out on silverware: in the Europa League final, the Italians thrashed "Bayer" – the only defeat for Xabi Alonso's side across all competitions that season! It should be noted, though, that their meticulous preparation for the new football year (selling Miranchuk, signing Zaniolo, Godfrey, and Sulemana) was largely disrupted by Scamacca's injury. The key striker suffered a severe ACL injury, underwent surgery, and isn't expected to return for at least six months. A replacement will come, but likely not in time for the match in Poland.
In 2021, the experienced Spaniards defeated the Italians twice in the Champions League Round of 16. Overall, the "Royal Club" is undoubtedly the stronger side. However, the Super Cup is not the most prestigious trophy, and they may not go all out for it. Bet on a neutral option with "total over 2.5 goals."
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
