Despite their defeat in the 2026 edition, Real Madrid’s head-to-head record against Barcelona in the Supercopa final remains strong.

The capital club defeated Barcelona over two games in 1988, 1990, 1993 and 1997, before losing a Clasico classic 5-4 in 2011.

Real Madrid went on to win the 2012 final on the old away goals rule, after losing 3–2 at Camp Nou and then winning 2–1 at the Bernabeu.

Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo both scored in the 2017 Supercopa final, which Real Madrid won 5-1 on aggregate.

Barcelona and Real Madrid have each defeated each other in four Copa del Rey finals

When will Barcelona and Real Madrid meet in a final?

Both Barcelona and Real Madrid are still in the Copa del Rey this season, so a meeting in the 2025/26 final remains a possibility.

The same applies in Europe. At the time of writing, the first ever Clasico Champions League final cannot be ruled out.

However, due to the number of rounds and teams involved in the respective tournaments, it is very likely that the 20th Clasico final will again take place in the Supercopa.

For now, both teams will shift their focus to La Liga, where Barcelona are well positioned to win back-to-back titles for the first time since 2019.

Barcelona’s recent dominance is highlighted by the fact that they are ten points ahead of Real Madrid in the 2025 La Liga calendar year table.
