Spanish Super Cup 12.01.2020.

Football fans can look forward to a truly spectacular event - a 36th annual Spanish Super Cup, for the first time held in the “Final Four” format. Before there would be 2 teams participating in the tournament, and now 4 of Spain’s strongest clubs will be competing with each other - Valencia as the holder of the 2018/19 Spanish Cup champion title, Barcelona as the leader of the current Primera, and Real Madrid with Atlético, 2nd and 3rd in the previous La Liga. The semifinals were held on January 8 and 9 in Saudi Arabia.

The tournament holds the promise of numerous goals scored - the Super Cup participants are among the five most productive teams in the history of Spanish football. At the same time, Atlético’s Diego Simeone polished the team’s defense almost to perfection. El Clasico rivals (Barcelona and Real Madrid) are also ready to treat their fans to an abundance of goals and get their own back for the last Primera draw (0:0). Barça’s won the Super Cup 13 times (against Real’s 10) and is the current champion of the tournament.

Valencia has only 1 win in the Super Cup, but the team regained its ambition under the leadership of Albert Celades. The Bats were outraged they would be entitled to under 3 million Euros for participation in the tournament, while Barça and Real Madrid would get paid 8. However, Royal Spanish Football Federation explained that these amounts are calculated based on the historical achievements of the clubs in the Primera and Champions League. Still, Valencia has a chance of succeeding in the Super Cup; after all the team did defeat Barça 1:2 in the 2019 Copa del Rey. And now Atlético also has a chance to get back at Barcelona, the team they so often lose to.

Tottenham Hotspur - Liverpool

The leading Liverpool against Tottenham, who are outside the Premier League Euro Cup zone (6th place). Not much intrigue there, but English football does not get any less interesting because of that.

Tottenham’s main goal is to make it to the top five. Under the leadership of José Mourinho, appointed new head coach of the team on November 20, 2019, the Spurs made an impressive leap, gaining 16 points in the last 9 matches of the current championship. However, in 4 previous matches, Tottenham won only 1 victory over Brighton, while losing to Chelsea and Southampton, and getting away with a draw playing against Norwich. As for the rivalry with Liverpool, in the 5 previous matches against this team, the Spurs got 1 draw and 4 consecutive defeats.

The Scousers are confidently dominating the current championship and are 13 points ahead of their closest rival Leicester City. At the moment, Liverpool has 19 wins and 1 draw, eager to hold on to their victorious streak for as long as possible. Will they manage to? There is a big question mark after this one, but it’s highly unlikely Jürgen Klopp’s team will be defeated by Tottenham. Especially since in the last 17 matches with this team the Scousers won 10 times, had two defeats and 4 draws. At the same time, Liverpool scored at least 2 goals in these matches 12 times.

The Scousers are always ready to treat their fans to some beautiful goals. In 20 matches of the current Premier League, the Reds scored 2 or more goals 17 times. Tottenham, in their turn, conceded 2 or more in every other match - 10 times out of 20. Individual Total Over 2 - 1.5 with odds of 1.65 in 22Bet line.
