Watch Juventus Vs. AC Milan Italian Super Cup Live Stream: Start Time, Preview, Supercoppa Italiana In Jeddah
The 22nd Italian Super Cup take place on Wednesday, pitting the two sides who have most frequently won the annual showdown between the previous season’s Serie A champion and Coppa Italia winner, in this case, Juventus and AC Milan respectively (though Milan lost the 2018 Coppa Italia to Juventus). Each club has won the Supercoppa Italiana seven time. But this year, as The Guardian has reported, the game is arguably being overshadowed by the controversy surrounding the choice of location where it will be contested — as the Super Cup match will live stream from Saudi Arabia.

In the United Kingdom, that kickoff time will be 5:30 p.m. Greenwich Mean Time.

“Italian politicians and human rights activists have objected to the game being played in Saudi Arabia, citing the assassination of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi at the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul,” reported the Washington Post. Khashoggi was brutally killed by a Saudi hit team on October 2, as the Inquisitr has covered, in a killing widely believed to have been ordered by Saudi ruler Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman.
But even with the controversy, the game will be played on Wednesday, with Juventus looking to avenge a loss in the 2016 Supercoppa, when Milan took the victory on penalties after the sides battled to a 1-1 draw. That age was the last time Juve lost to AC Milan in any competition, according to the Daily Mail.
On November 11, Juventus — who have yet to lose a game in Serie A this season — took a 2-0 victory from Milan at the San Siro, as Soccerway reports.
