Ancelotti vs Glasner
Carlo Ancelotti will become the most successful manager in the history of the UEFA Super Cup if he wins the trophy today - no other manager has won it as many as four times. Ancelotti already won it thrice.
However, the Italian gaffer must win the tactical battle against Oliver Glasner of Frankfurt. The Austrian manager is building a decent resume and could use Madrid as a stepping stone after winning the Europa League in May.
Frankfurt's memorable victory against Barcelona happened not too long ago, which shows how Glasner has built a giant killer team.
War in midfield
The match may be won and lost in midfield. Real Madrid have some of the best midfielders in the world with the likes of Modric, Kroos, Tchouameni, Casemiro and Camavinga.
However, Frankfurt also boasts a powerful side, particularly in their midfield. They have players like Daichi Kamada and Jesper Lindstrom who can change the game at the spur of the moment, even if Filip Kostic is not available.
Attack vs defence
Frankfurt are a team that like to attack in drones, and it will be interesting to see how well they do against Real Madrid's star-studded defence.
On the other end, the likes of Vinicius, Benzema and Valverde will relish their chance against the German defence. One can only expect end-to-end stuff at the Helsinki Olympic Stadium later tonight
