How to Watch Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Live Stream? Start Time and Match Details

Another Madrid derby is on the line, as Atletico Madrid is ready to face Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup semifinal 2025-26 on January 8th, at King Abdullah Sports Stadium in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Atletico Madrid are hoping to win their fourth Super Cup, while the men in white are bidding for their 14th time in their illustrious history.

Atletico Madrid remain five games unbeaten, but in the last game against Real Sociedad, they were held by them in a frustrating draw at Reale Arena. Previously, when the two teams faced each other in the 2025-26 season, the Los Blancos faced a humiliating 5-2 defeat at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano Stadium. That scoreline was historic for the Red and Whites, as they scored 5 goals for the first time against their city rivals in 75 years.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid will be under the pressure against their fierce rival, as they will be on the pitch without one of the best strikers in the world, Kylian Mbappe. The French forward was also out due to injury in Los Blancos' last match against Real Betis, where they humiliated Los Verdiblancos with a 5-1 stalemate, which released ongoing sacking tension from Real Madrid's Spanish tactician, Xabi Alonso. But in the absence of the French international, Gonzalo Garcia has shown his potential, as he can lead the forward line.

There is a slight possibility that Xabi Alonso might change his tactics and go forward with a false 9 with Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo on the wing alongside Jude Bellingham in the false 9 role, as he has shown his capabilities under Carlo Ancelotti's system. As the final of the tournament is at stake, Xabi Alonso has shown confidence in his lineup in the pre-match press conference, and he is also confident that the Super Cup final will be an El Clasico.
