Real Madrid will play Valencia in the semifinals of their Spanish Super Cup defense. The victor of this game, which is taking place in Saudi Arabia, will compete on January 15 against either Real Betis or Barcelona. Real must recover from a shocking 2-1 defeat at Villarreal last weekend, which put them three points behind La Liga's top-placed Barcelona. Because they won La Liga the previous season, they are eligible for this four-team cup competition. Since the start of the Spanish season, they had won two straight games, but they subsequently dropped their second straight away league encounter. Valencia is a team that Real has defeated three straight times and hasn't lost to since 2020.
