FC Bayern Munich of Germany will battle it out with Sevilla from Spain for the UEFA Super Cup crown at the Puskas Arena in Budapest, Hungary. This is a one-match competition played between the winners of the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Europa League. Bayern defeated Paris Saint Germain in Lisbon while Sevilla defeated Inter Milan in Germany to win the Champions League and Europa League respectively.
Bayern will start as favourites as they have a team, brimming with talent and even more potential. Under Hansi Flick, Bayern have been a force to reckon with, winning the Champions League quite comfortably. In the summer they bought in Leroy Sane, one of the best German wingers. With Mueller, Lewandowski and Gnabry Bayern have the most lethal and in form strike force in Europe. They destroyed Schalke 04 in the weekend. They also have a good defence and with Manuel Neuer in between the sticks, Bayern are in safe hands.
Sevilla on the other hand have always done well in Europe’s second tier competition. Whilst they aren’t a top quality side as Bayern, they do have a good team with players like Ever Banega and Ocampos. It would be good to see how Julen Lopetegui sets his side up to stop the attackers of Bayern. Anthony Taylor will referee the game at Budapest. It has the potential to be a good match-up because we have seen Sevilla not getting overwhelmed by the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona. They might be underdogs, but they aren’t pushovers.
