The match is the culmination of Spain’s oldest soccer competition and widely considered to be one of the most prestigious national cup trophies in the world. The winner, besides earning a trophy, will also qualify for the following season’s UEFA Europa League, so there’s everything to play for here. Barcelona is the most successful club in the competition having won the cup 30 times overall but Athletic Club isn’t far behind with the Bilbao-based side winning the second most titles with 23. In the past, both sides have met 40 times with Barcelona leading the way with 27 victories but there’s still a good chance for Athletic Club to change the tide. Either way, it should be a fantastic match.
