There’s much more at stake than just bragging rights.

With the total prize money of €28 million, all participants will view this as an opportunity to bolster their bank accounts.

The winner will take home an eye-watering €8m, with the runner-up set to earn €5m.

All four teams will receive €1.5 just for participating in the competition.

As for the other €7m, the remaining 16 Serie A clubs will get a percentage.

Interestingly, there will be no extra time in the latest edition of the Supercoppa Italiana.

Each game would go straight to a penalty shootout in case of a draw in regulation time.

Despite their stuttering Serie A start, Inter are the leading candidates to reclaim the trophy.

Inzaghi knows in-depth about winning this title, having lifted it five times, including twice with Lazio.

However, Inter must not underestimate the strength of other contenders, even though they strolled to success last term.

The Nerazzurri won the 2023 installment without conceding as they overcame Fiorentina and Napoli in Riyadh.
