The basques, revividos desde la llegada de Marcelino y tras ganar la Supercopa de España, they have to play the final of 2020 against Real Sociedad just a week before the 2021. And as is logical, the idea of being able to play two finals in a week in a row and win two cups at once, It is an idea that motivates the lions a lot.
