Like last season, the Supercoppa Final Four is entirely played in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport, via TMW, there was an intense training session on Friday, but it only involved the players who had not taken part in Napoli-Milan.

After that, the Napoli coach gave the team the evening off, so the players had dinner at a Japanese restaurant outside their training ground.

On the other hand, Conte and his staff watched the semifinal between Bologna and Inter on TV, while some collaborators of the Italian tactician watched the match between Rossoblu and Nerazzurri from the stadium.

Today, the team will start preparing for the Final against Bologna, which will be played on Monday, December 22.

Conte is expected to make little changes to the line-up for the final, specifically by picking Alessandro Buongiorno over Juan Jesus in central defence and, perhaps, Noa Lang over Eljif Elmas as an attacking midfielder.
