Supercup! Juventus vs. Napoli at The Bird's Nest This Saturday

Fans of Italian football are in for their yearly treat – the Supercoppa Italiana returns to Beijing this Saturday night. At this year’s showpiece start to the Scudetto, league champions Juventus take on cup winners Napoli for the season’s first silverware. Tickets are still available, with prices ranging from the bargainous RMB 199 to the somewhat loftier RMB 3,999.

Though Del Piero and Lavezzi may be gone, we can expect star-packed lineups to be gracing the turf at the Bird’s Nest, based on the Milan derby in this fixture last year. And paying less than two hundred kuai to see Andrea Pirlo even half as impressive as he was at Euro 2012 is an absolute steal. Let's hope that his footballing calm keeps everyone from getting in the same high spirits as Pato last year.

Get tickets online or call 6415 6266/5323/6299 to speak to an actual human.
