UEFA Super Cup: Real Madrid vs Atalanta Betting Preview, Lineups and Prediction

Real Madrid vs Atalanta UEFA Super Cup preview, betting tips, prediction, team news and kickoff time. 

The first silverware of the 2024/2025 European football season is up for grabs as Real Madrid take on Atalanta in this year’s UEFA Super Cup clash at National Stadium in Warsaw, Poland on Wednesday night. 

Both clubs are competing for this year’s prize after winning two of the biggest European club trophies last season. 

Real Madrid won their 15th European Cup after beating Borussia Dortmund 2-0 in the final of last year’s UEFA Champions League.

Meanwhile, Atalanta are playing their first ever Super Cup clash after beating Bayer Leverkusen 3-0 in the final of last season’s Europa League to win their first European trophy. 

The clash in Warsaw promises to be an exciting encounter and a glimpse of what to expect in this year’s European competitions. 

Real Madrid vs Atalanta Preview 

Real Madrid will hope to start their season on a winning note and they will feel confident in their chances. 

Los Blancos are no strangers to the UEFA Super Cup, having won the title five times. Carlo Ancelotti’s men could become the team to win six UEFA Super Cups with a win on Wednesday night, moving past Barcelona and AC Milan. 

Real Madrid are playing another Super Cup clash after beating Borussia Dortmund in the final of the Champions League. 

Madrid were second best for most of the first half, but just as the story has always been with Ancelotti’s men in the Champions League, they picked the right moment to hit Dortmund. 

Dani Carvajal’s header and Vinicius Jnr's finish in the second gave Los Blancos their 15th European Cup that night. 

While Real Madrid were no strangers to winning European trophies, Atalanta were in an unfamiliar territory when they took on Bayer Leverkusen last May. 

La Dea had not won a major European trophy in their history going into their clash against the German side. 

Not only that, but Gian Piero Gasperini’s men were also the underdogs against a Leverkusen side that had ended Bayern Munich’s dominance in Germany without losing a game all season in all competitions. 

However, form went out of the window that night as an Ademola Lookman hat-trick gave Atalanta a commanding 3-0 win over Xabi Alonso’s men. 

Atalanta will now seek to cause another upset when they take on the giants of European football on Wednesday night. 

Real Madrid vs Atalanta Form Guide 

Real Madrid come into this match hoping to continue their brilliant end to last season. Ancelotti’s men are unbeaten in their last 26 matches in all competitions, winning 17 and drawing nine.

They have not lost a competitive match since January. However, while they are unbeaten in their last 26 competitive matches, Madrid had a mixed preseason, winning two and losing two games, including a defeat to Barcelona. 

Meanwhile, Atalanta come into this match following a poor preseason, losing 4-1 to Parma and 3-0 to FC St. Pauli. 

Real Madrid vs Atalanta Team News 

There have been a few changes to the two teams since they won their European trophies. The most notable change for Madrid is the arrival of Kylian Mbappe and the retirement of Toni Kroos. 

Mbappe finally joined Madrid after years of speculation and should make his debut against Atalanta. 

The former Paris Saint-Germain only arrived last week after helping France reach the semifinal of the Euros, but he is fit to play the clash. 

However, while Mbappe is a big addition, Madrid will be without Toni Kroos who retired from football following the Euros. 

David Alaba will also miss the game as he is currently nursing a knee injury. As for Atalanta, Mateo Retegui, who joined from Genoa, is expected to start alongside Lookman. Charles De Ketelaere, who joined permanently this summer after spending last season on loan, should also start. 

Real Madrid's possible XI: Thibaut Courtois, Dani Carvajal, Éder Militão, Antonio Rüdiger, Ferland Mendy, Federico Valverde, Aurélien Tchouaméni, Luka Modric, Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior.

Atalanta’s Possible XI: uan Musso, Berat Djimsiti, Isak Hien, Sead Kolasinac, Davide Zappacosta, Éderson, Marten De Roon, Matteo Ruggeri, Charles De Ketelaere, Mateo Retegui, Ademola Lookman.

Real Madrid vs Atalanta H2H

Real Madrid vs Atalanta Betting Preview 

Real Madrid are the clear favourite for this one and are backed at 1.51 at Housebets to get the job done. 

Meanwhile, Atalanta are priced at 5.80 to cause an upset, which is not impossible. However, over 2.5 at 1.60 looks like a decent option or both teams to score at 1.99 if you are looking for a high risk, high reward odd.
