Kuwait will host the French Super Cup (Champions Cup) on January 8 at Jaber Al-Ahmad International Stadium through a collaboration between the French Football League and Kuwait Football Association. The match will feature traditional rivals Paris Saint-Germain, current French league champions and cup holders, against Olympique de Marseille, the league runners-up.
This encounter marks the third time these two clubs will meet in the French Super Cup, following previous championship meetings in 2010 and 2020. The event represents a significant international sporting occasion for Kuwait, bringing one of European football's most celebrated rivalries to the Middle East and demonstrating Kuwait's growing capacity for hosting major international sporting events.
The French Super Cup traditionally pits the Ligue 1 champions against the Coupe de France winners, though when PSG wins both competitions, the league runners-up qualify as opponents, creating this classic French "classico" matchup in Kuwaiti territory.
