Paris Saint-Germain or Spurs will have to follow a strict rule if they get their hands on the UEFA Super Cup on Wednesday night.
The Champions League and Europa League winners lock horns at Bluenergy Stadium, home of Serie A side Udinese, in what is the 50th edition of the annual fixture.
PSG, who left out Gianluigi Donnarumma out of the squad, have appeared in the game before back in 1996 when they won the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup and ended up losing 9-2 in a two-legged thrashing at the hands of Champions League winners Juventus.
It is Spurs' debut after they ended a 17-year trophy drought by beating Manchester United in the final in Bilbao but both sides need to be aware of a regulation put in place by UEFA.

The winner will of course get their hands on the trophy, which is 58cm and 12.2kg, as well as 50 gold medals.
But they only have that piece of silverware for the official presentation as that is kept in UEFA's clutches. Instead, the winners get a full-size replica that belongs to them.
However, if the club plan to leave their country of residence with the trophy - they must receive written permission from UEFA.

In addition , there are strict regulations in place for any trophy-related activities involving any sponsors and commercial partners.
Article 9.02 in the regulations of the UEFA Super document states: "Replica trophies awarded to winners of the competition (past and current) must remain within the relevant club’s control at all times and may not leave the club’s country without UEFA’s prior written consent (in this respect, clubs must comply with any request from the UEFA administration to confirm the location of the club’s replica trophies).
"Clubs must not permit a replica trophy to be used in any context where a third party (including sponsors and other commercial partners) is granted visibility or in any other way that could lead to an association between any third party and the trophy and/or the competition. Clubs must comply with any trophy use guidelines that the UEFA administration issues."
Spurs received apology from UEFA in last final appearance
James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski and Radu Dragusin are all absent for Spurs, though Dominic Solanke is fit after recovering from an ankle injury.

When Spurs beat United to win the Europa League, there was confusion regarding their medals as some did not wear the full kit as is required by UEFA - instead wearing Nike sports socks.
Spurs actually received an apology from UEFA after captain Son, Rodrigo Bentancur and Cristian Romero did not have medals on for the trophy presentation due to an "unexpected discrepancy" which meant Alexander Ceferin didn't have enough to give out.
The trio didn't end up missing out as they received their mementos in the dressing room instead.
