Khaberni - Napoli, last season's Italian league champions, will kick off the Italian Super Cup by facing Milan in the semifinals of the new edition, which is hosted by the Saudi capital, Riyadh, between December 18 and 22.
Napoli won the Italian league championship for the second time in three seasons under the leadership of Antonio Conte, and will face Milan, who won the last edition of the Super Cup against their traditional rival Inter in Riyadh at the beginning of 2025.
Milan won the match that brought them together in the fifth round of the current season with two goals to one, reinforcing its number of victories over the southern team, marking the 71st win in their history of encounters, while Napoli has won 53 times and drawn on 54 occasions.
The winner between these teams will face the victor of the match between Inter, last season's runner-up in the Italian league, and Bologna, who is appearing for the first time in the Super Cup after their Italian Cup win last season.
Saudi Arabia has hosted 5 editions of the Italian Super Cup since 2018, with Inter Milan winning two of them, and Juventus, Lazio, and Milan, the champion of the last edition, each winning once.
