"I'll field the best team for the match," said Mourinho. "The two new players produced great performances for their former clubs in the past season. They're important players for our improvement."

He also confirmed Sweden's superstar striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic will come to China despite being linked to a move to Barcelona.

China's soccer festival

The Italian Super Cup match will mark the end of a week-long pre-season soccer festival involving English Premier League sides Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham and Hull City and Chinese Super League outfit Beijing Guo'an.

Withthe Super Cup scheduled for the Bird's Nest, Beijing Workers' Stadium will host the other matches.

The Super Cup will be the Olympic site's first sports fixture since the Paralympic Games' last September.

With prohibitive hiring costs, a concert by movie star Jackie Chan early this month has been the only event held at the home of the 2008 Olympics.

Officials from the Beijing Football Association (BFA) admitted negotiations with the Italian side were so tough that the match was almost canceled.

"It was tough. The Bird's Nest offers the best facilities in various ways so the costs are higher than expected, which made for some disagreements between the two sides at the beginning," said Wang Hui, CEO of the event's organizing company.

"But Inter and Lazio are satisfied with what we have offered."
