The Super Cup plan gains strength in Athletic’s attempt to win the Cup

Lto rojiblanca squad lives the eve of the final. The players will sleep tonight in Seville and on Friday they will train on the stage of the match. This afternoon they will travel to the Andalusian capital, where they will arrive for dinner. The agenda from there will be entirely focused on defeating Barcelona: activation and physical session on Friday morning at the hotel, video, talk, individual meetings and training at La Cartuja. On Saturday the plan will be similar, although from noon the lions will be clear who will be those who jump into the field.

Marcelino will retouch the team and it seems that the same ones that started in the final lost with Real Sociedad will not play. The new plan can be closer to the one the team had in the final of the Super Cup won against Barcelona, ​​with Capa and De Marcos sharing the right band with that of Laguardia more advanced. The appeal would leave Bereguer on the bench, who would be an important piece with the passing of the minutes: the Navarrese has shown to have a good entry into the games when he leaves from the bench.

In the final of the Super Cup, the left-back went to Balenziaga, which played because Yuri was not available. This time the match profile increases the chances that Balenziaga will repeat because he has experience, he has shown himself to be capable of performing and Yuri is coming off a week of recovery due to a muscle injury. In this case there would be no double side because Muniain will continue ahead of the one chosen for the defense.

The possibility of making five changes, to choose between a bench of 9 members because in the Cup the call is lower than in LaLiga and Marcelino will have to make 4 discards, increase the options to handle alternatives in the ‘classic’ drawings that the coach has used and offer variants both in the center of the field and in the attack zone.
