At the moment, Real Madrid is excelling in every tournament they are competing in. In addition to being in a position to win all three cup competitions (the Champions League, the Copa del Rey, and the Spanish Super Cup), the team coached by Carlo Ancelotti is now in first place in La Liga, despite being tied with Girona to the first spot in terms of points.
However, Los Blancos will not have an easy time acquiring another treble, which is something that they have accomplished over the course of the last couple of years without much difficulty. He told the media on Saturday (via Diario AS) that he fully expects Barcelona to be a serious contender to his team, despite the fact that their troubles over the last few of months have been well known. Ancelotti was the manager for both of these matches.
My opinion is that Barcelona is doing really well. In addition to La Liga, the Champions League, the Super Cup, and the Copa del Rey, they are competing for all of these titles. I try to avoid making judgments on other people, but I have no doubt that they will compete for all of the titles.
If they are victorious in their respective semi-final matches, the two teams may compete against one another in the final of the Spanish Super Cup the following weekend. In the event that this turns out to be the case, the winner of the match in Riyadh might potentially determine the course of the rest of the season. Real Madrid will be hoping that they are the ones who emerge triumphant.
