Champions League winners Real Madrid and Europa League champions Atletico Madrid go head to head for the European Supercup in the Estonian capital of Tallin here tonight. The first Madrid football derby of the season promises to give an insight into both sides' chances in the forthcoming La Liga Santander season which kicks off this weekend in Spain.

The clash also gives fans the chance to see what to expect of Real Madrid in the 'post-Ronaldo' era. Cristiano Ronaldo's departure to Juventus should give greater opportunities for both Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema and after being criticised last season, the signs are that both players have so far benefitted from the Portuguese's move.
