Each team's starting lineup from their previous match in this tournament is listed.

Ourense

The team rarely plays in the Copa del Rey, but this season has been incredibly successful. The club has defeated all its opponents with narrow margins. Pablo Lopez's team first overcame Guijuelo away with a 2-1 scoreline, then managed to beat Deportivo (1-0) and Valladolid (3-2) at home.

• The club has not lost in regular time in their last five matches in this tournament (3 wins and 2 draws).
• In the last 9 matches in the Copa del Rey and Segunda B, Ourense has suffered only one defeat (6 wins and 2 draws).
• In their last seven home matches in both Spanish tournaments, the team has not lost once (5 wins and 2 draws).

Valencia

Valencia has also played three matches in the current Copa del Rey and managed without extra time, but all matches were away. The team successively defeated Parla Escuela (1-0), Ejea (3-1), and Eldense (2-0). Notably, Valencia holds six Copa del Rey trophies and has reached the final 11 times (the previous attempt was in 2022). Last season, the club ended its run in this tournament at the Round of 16 stage, losing to Celta (1-3).

• In the last 18 matches in the Copa del Rey, the club has suffered only two defeats in regular time (12 wins and 4 draws).
• No more than three goals were scored in 90 minutes in 6 of Valencia's last 7 games in this tournament.
• The number "1" appeared in the scoreline at the end of regular time in 5 of Valencia's last 6 matches in the Copa del Rey.

Ourense vs. Valencia: Match Prediction

The Galicians represent the third tier of Spanish football – Segunda B. Even there, the team does not show high-quality football, sitting low in the standings. All their efforts are focused on the Copa del Rey, where they have already knocked out Segunda representative Deportivo and La Liga outsider Valladolid. Even in their last two participations in this tournament, Ourense, although eliminated at their first stage, only lost in extra time or on penalties.

Valencia, while having good records in the Copa del Rey, has achieved this against lower division opponents. It's worth noting that the team does not often win convincingly in this tournament – in the previous 17 matches, Valencia has won by two or more goals only five times. Therefore, I believe that even if the hosts lose to one of the weakest teams in La Liga, it will be by a maximum of one goal. My prediction: Ourense with a handicap (+1)
