The two teams make their entrance on the lawn!
On the Sevillian side, we will find the former Rennes Loic Badé, holder in the axis.
It remains to be seen how the Citizens will manage the absence of Kévin de Bruyne. The Belgian will be out for many months with a hamstring injury.
Manchester City will surely be thirsty for revenge after the Community Shield final lost on August 6 against Arsenal on penalties.
The evening can drag on when you know that the last three SuperCoupes of Seville FC all ended after extra time.
But the Spaniards have good memories of English clubs. Indeed, they won their two finals against English clubs, Middlesbrough 4-0 in 2006), then 3-1 against Liverpool in the Europa League final in 2016!
Dangerous against many formations, Erding Haaland particularly likes playing against FC Seville. The Norwegian has indeed scored six goals in these last three duels with the Andalusians.
The match promises to be particularly special for Navas. The Sevillan played for a long time in City with which he won the title of Champion of England in 2014!
The referee of this meeting will be the Frenchman, François Letexier!
With three Super Cups to his name, Pep Guardiola could become the most successful manager in this competition if his side win tonight.
Both teams have already taken over the championship. The English made a success of their debut by dominating Burnley 3 goals to 0. For its part, the Sevillians experienced a more complicated first with a 2-1 loss at home against Valencia.
Moreover, the Spaniards have never dominated the English in an official match. They remain on four defeats in as many games played.
The last confrontation between the two teams is not so far away. Indeed, the two clubs faced each other in the group stage of the Champions League in November 2022. Manchester City won 3 goals to 1.
On the Spanish side: Bounou – Navas (c), Badé, Gudelj, Acuna – Jordan, Rakitic – Ocampos, Torres, Lamela – En-Nesyri.
The English composition: Ederson – Walker (c), Akanji, Gvardiol, Aké – Rodri, Kovacic – Palmer, Foden, Grealish – Haaland.
