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

There have been limited time to rest for the home team, as they featured in a Segunda Division RFEF: Group 3 match only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Valencia II, was also a home game here at Estadio Nou Camp de Morvedre. The away team is better rested.
