The stage for the showdown will be the Stadio Friuli, home of Udinese, in Udine, Italy.
The match, which brings together the two continental champions, will go straight to penalties, with no extra time, in the event of a draw in regular time.
This will be the 13th edition of the Super Cup held outside Monaco, since the game left its former fixed venue in 2013.
Since then, the final has been played in cities such as Prague, Cardiff, Tbilisi, Helsinki, and Warsaw.
In the most recent edition, in 2024, Real Madrid beat Atalanta 2-0, with goals from Federico Valverde and Kylian Mbappé.
The Stadio Friuli, home of Udinese and former club of Zico in Italy, has already hosted the final of the 2019 U21 European Championship and will now be the center of attention in European football once again.

Paris arrives at the Super Cup after finally winning the biggest tournament in Europe.
Ironically, the UCL trophy came in the very year that Qatar Sports Investments – the Qatari investment fund that controls the club – did not bet on superstars.
On the other side, Tottenham comes in on a high after the biggest achievement in its history, the UEFA Europa League, which also ended a 16-year drought without official titles.
So, guys, who's going to win this one?
