Wednesday's Copa del Rey predictions including Parla Escuela vs. Valencia

sportsmole.co.uk, 30 October 2024, 06:20
Las Rozas vs. Sevilla (Wednesday, 6.00pm)

Sevilla will travel to Estadio Navalcarbon for Wednesday's Copa del Rey first-round clash against fifth-tier Las Rozas.

Las Rozas are set to appear in the Copa del Rey for the second time in three seasons after securing their place via their performance in the Copa Federacion de Espana.

We say: Las Rozas 1-4 Sevilla

Sevilla are likely to go into Wednesday's contest with a much-changed side, but they will still have a significant quality advantage over their hosts, and we believe that they will sweep Las Rozas aside to cruise into the second round.

Chiclana vs. Osasuna (Wednesday, 6.00pm)

Osasuna will kick off their Copa del Rey campaign on Wednesday with a trip to sixth-tier Chiclana for a first-round tie.

The visitors dropped out in the round of 16 last time around, while the hosts again reached this stage by winning a preliminary-round tie after dropping out at the hands of Villarreal last year.

We say: Chiclana 0-3 Osasuna

Likely prioritising their run of La Liga fixtures at this stage of the season with a return to action looming on Saturday, Osasuna should field a heavily-rotated squad on Wednesday, but they should still have more than enough to come out of the test unscathed and advance to the second round.

Lucena vs. Leganes (Wednesday, 6.00pm)

CD Ciudad de Lucena and Leganes will do battle on Wednesday with a spot in the Copa del Rey second round on the line.

The hosts have not featured in this competition since 2020, while their visitors dropped out in the second round last season.

We say: CD Ciudad de Lucena 0-3 Leganes

Even with their anticipated rotations, Leganes should have far too much quality all over the pitch for Wednesday's hosts, and we see them progressing with a relatively comfortable win.

Parla Escuela vs. Valencia (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

Valencia will begin their Copa del Rey campaign when they travel to Madrid for Wednesday's meeting with sixth-tier Parla Escuela.

Los Che will be looking to return to winning ways after failing to win any of their previous four La Liga matches.

We say: Parla Escuela 1-3 Valencia

Valencia will be low on confidence after winning just one of their 11 league matches this season, but while they may be struggling in La Liga, they should have enough quality at their disposal to claim a relatively comfortable victory in Wednesday's contest.

Extremadura vs. Girona (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

La Liga side Girona will travel to Estadio Francisco de la Hera for Wednesday's Copa del Rey clash with fifth-tier Extremadura.

The visitors will be looking for a response in the first-round tie after falling to a narrow defeat in their recent away meeting with Las Palmas.

We say: Extremadura 0-3 Girona

While Girona may be dealing with an injury crisis, we still believe that they will have far too much quality for their fifth-tier opponents, which is why we expect the hosts to ease to a relatively comfortable victory in Wednesday's Copa del Rey clash.

UD San Pedro vs. Celta Vigo (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

Celta Vigo will look to bounce back from a heavy defeat to Leganes when they kick off their Copa del Rey campaign against UD San Pedro.

The sixth-tier side progressed through the preliminary stage to set up a dream first-round tie against a La Liga team.

We say: UD San Pedro 0-4 Celta Vigo

San Pedro will be looking forward to a dream tie against a La Liga side, but while it will be an unforgettable day for the hosts, we believe that they will fall to a heavy defeat even if Celta decide to make wholesale changes for the cup clash.
