Official: Supercoppa Italiana Inter vs. Lazio set for December 22

It is now official that the Supercoppa Italiana will be played on Tuesday December 22 between Inter and Lazio at San Siro, ending the Final Four format.

The trophy has traditionally been a pre-season clash between the Scudetto winners and the holders of the Coppa Italia.

In recent years, it transformed to be largely hosted abroad in China or Saudi Arabia, and adopted a Final Four format where there were semi-finals involving the runners-up of those two tournaments.

Supercoppa Italiana back to basics

With Saudi Arabia opting not to take up hosting duties this season, the Lega Serie A decided to go back to basics and on home turf.

It is going to be a one-off match between Inter, who actually won both trophies, and Coppa Italia runners-up Lazio.

San Siro will host the kick-off on Tuesday December 22 at 20.00 UK time (21.00 local).

If the score is level after 90 minutes, they will go to extra time and potentially even a penalty shoot-out.

Due to sponsorship reasons, it will officially be called the EA Sports FC Supercup 2026/27.
