The Spanish Super Cup pits the winners of the previous season’s LaLiga against the champion of the Copa del Rey from the previous campaign. Historically this has been the case anyway, but has been changed recently to involve the teams that finish first and second in the league, and the two finalists of the cup, creating a semi-final stage before the final.
