National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's FC Cartagena or Valencia that keep their silverware dream alive.

Little time to rest for the hosts, as they had a La Liga 2 match only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Almeria.
