King's Cup Prediction
Make way for the Copa del Rey for the resumption of Spanish football! The round of 16 moves to the Municipal Stadium of Malata to watch the clash between Racing Ferrol and Rayo Vallecano. A division separates the two teams before kick-off, which gives some idea as to who will win when the final whistle blows. Located in the soft underbelly of La Liga, the group coached by Inigo Pérez intends to spend a round in this competition, so as to start the new year on a good basis. Undefeated for five games, including three draws in a row against great teams from the best championship in Spain (Real Madrid, Villarreal, Betis Sevilla), the Madrid club is attacking this trip with many certainties on the green rectangle. The RVM is expected to turn the corner by observers because an “easy” victory is expected at the end of the 90 minutes.
Will the step be too high for the Liga2 resident? This is the option considered because the Green Devils are preoccupied with something other than the Copa del Rey: remaining in the championship. In addition, the dynamics of the RCF are worrying because only one victory was observed in 360 minutes at the end of 2024. Defeated by Almeria (4-1) in front of their supporters before losing 1-0 in Zaragoza, the green and white start 2025 with many doubts on both sides of the field. By facing a better team, it is very possible that the situation will not improve when the final whistle blows.
