National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Arenteiro or Valencia that keep their silverware dream alive.
These are hustling days for the host team, as they had a game only four days ago in the Segunda Division RFEF: Group 1. Thankfully the previous game, versus Union Adarve, was also a home game here at Estadio de Espiñedo. The away team is better rested.
These teams have little in common geographically as Valencia have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Arenteiro form and stats
This is not the first game this season in the Copa Del Rey for Arenteiro, as the manager Rodríguez Justo led his troops to eliminate SD Logrones, and reach the 2nd Round.The Arenteiro fans got no joy from their last match, a Segunda Division RFEF: Group 1 game also here at Estadio de Espiñedo: A 0-1 defeat against Union Adarve.
Heartbreak before that as Arenteiro lost 0-1 at Coruxo's place.There will be little rest for Arenteiro after this match as they are travelling to Navalcarnero for a Segunda Division RFEF: Group 1 game in only three days.
Valencia form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Utrillas in order to reach 2nd round of Copa Del Rey. Last season their Copa Del Rey adventure ended in the 8th finals.The story so far for the visiting team on their La Liga travels is 2 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats.
The supporters enjoyed Valencia's previous game versus Elche, a La Liga 2-1 win played at home. Piccini came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Elche last time out, making the manager Bordalás Jiménez feel like a tactical genius. Midfield player Carlos Soler was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.33/10. Soler hit six key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.
Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at Celta de Vigo.As mentioned earlier, Valencia will not be satisfied unless they get a comfortable victory in this game. Performing as huge favourites away from home has earlier resulted in two wins (two by two or more goals winning margin), zero draws and zero surprising defeats.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The La Liga trip to Levante.
Valencia find the net regularly in their away games. 10 goals from 8 away fixtures in the league. Valencia have conceded 13 goals in these games.
