Walmart is bringing its brand to the biggest match in soccer.

The nation's largest retailer plans to announce Thursday a partnership with Spanish soccer league La Liga as it looks to expand its foothold in soccer and capitalize on its growing fandom in the U.S.

Under the partnership, Walmart will become the first presenting partner of La Liga's "El Clásico," a rivalry matchup between its two powerhouse teams: FC Barcelona and Real Madrid CF.

"Teaming up with La Liga and El Clásico enables Walmart to fuel the energy create unforgettable experiences and give fans more ways to celebrate the game that they love," Walmart Chief Marketing Officer William White told CNBC in an interview. "Ultimately, Walmart is looking to make it easier for fans to engage and participate in the game."
