Good evening and welcome to MARCA in English's live coverage of the opening game of the Supercopa de Espana between city rivals Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in Saudi Arabia.
Real Madrid arrive at the mid-season tournament sitting pretty at the top of LaLiga EA Sports, currently level on points with surprise package Girona, and can now focus their efforts on challenging for a third Supercopa title in five years in the Arabian Gulf.
Off the back of Carlo Ancelotti signing a new contract to continue as head coach, Los Blancos began 2024 on a winning note with a slender 1-0 win over Real Mallorca at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
But they face an Atletico team who have managed to consign their 'boring' tag to the past, becoming one of Spain's most entertaining teams to watch, as their last-gasp 4-3 defeat to Girona highlighted.
They have the in-form Alvaro Morata leading the frontline for Diego Simeone, with the Spain striker primed to exact revenge on the club where he began his career after his hat-trick in Catalonia last time out.
For a long time, it seemed that no matter what the competition or venue was, Simeone could not beat Real for love nor money. But all of that changed when his Atletico side won 3-1 in the first derby of the season back in September, with Morata scoring twice either side of Antoine Griezmann's goal.
Real Madrid have not lost a game in all competitions since that day at the Wanda Metropolitano, a run that stretches back 18 games and includes 15 wins. With that impressive run still intact, they will be the favorites to edge out this close contest in what will prove to be an unmissable night of football at the Al-Awwal Stadium.
