A super-charged clasico: Real Madrid and Barcelona will be meeting on Saudi pitches at the Shining Jewel Stadium for the final of the Supercopa de España tonight at 9pm. Los Blancos beat out Real Mallorca to become the La Liga champions this past season, while the Blaugrana — coming in second in the league — defeated Athletic Bilbao to earn their spot. Barcelona holds the record for most Supercopa titles, with 14 victories under their belt, while Real Madrid follows closely with just one title less.

Zamalek will be hosting Mozambique’s Black Bulls tonight at 6pm for the fifth round of the CAF Confederation Cup group stage. What was meant to be an away game for our homegrown team will now be held at the Cairo International Stadium due to security concerns at the Mozambican pitch. At the same time, Al Masry will be facing the Nigerian Enyimba. The White Knights top the group leaderboard with 8 points, followed by Al Masry with 5 points, and the Black Bulls and Enyimba tied with four points each.

The most anticipated match of the third round in the FA Cup’s round of 64 will see Arsenal and Manchester United going head to head at 5pm.
