What the expert says...
Kylian Mbappe set to make his debut for Real after moving from PSG this summer
Real Madrid have their brand new Galactico in Kylian Mbappe and we could well see him make his competitive debut for the club in the Super Cup.
Carlo Ancelotti has told reporters that Mbappe can play in the game from the start meaning that the first time we see him as Real's new number 9 will be in Poland on Wednesday.
Mbappe took part in Real Madrid training for the first time on Wednesday 7 August but he will be no stranger to the majority of the players who he will star alongside next season.
The French striker had a poor European Championship campaign after suffering a broken nose early on in the competition and he'll be looking to kickstart his career in Madrid with an early trophy.

Atalanta will be more than happy to go into match as underdogs
Atalanta head into the Super Cup as big underdogs with manager Gian Piero Gasperini playing down their chances significantly in recent days.
The Italian manager told publication l’Eco di Bergamo that the season is already a complicated one after Giorgio Scalvini and Gianluca Scamacca both suffering serious knee injuries.
Gasperini spoke about the tough games his side have to start the season saying that his squad, "is much less competitive than it was at the end of last season."
