Whoever wins in Istanbul will claim England's eighth UEFA Super Cup, both Spain (15) and Italy (nine) more than another.

Liverpool's 2005 success remains the last Premier League clubs to have won the trophy, and also have been beaten on their four subsequent appearances, including defeats for Chelsea in 2012 and 2013, and Manchester United 2017

This will also be the first time a Spanish club has not won the UEFA Super Cup since 2013 when Bayern München beat Chelsea on penalties in Prague.
