Pontevedra

The Galicians have reached the Round of 16 for the first time this century, doing so triumphantly. The representative of Spain's fourth-tier league first thrashed Levante from Segunda with a 4-1 scoreline and then took on Primera clubs. In December, the team overcame Villarreal (1-0), and at the start of the new year, they sensationally defeated Mallorca (3-0). Incidentally, it was Mallorca that stopped Pontevedra last time they played in this tournament – in the 2022/23 season, the club lost in the Round of 32 in extra time (0-0, extra time 0-2).

• The club has not lost in regular time in eight consecutive matches in the Copa del Rey (6 wins and 2 draws).
• Pontevedra scored in 6 out of 8 previous games in this tournament after 90 minutes.
• At least one team failed to score in regular time in 13 of the last 18 matches in the Spanish Cup.

Getafe

The club from the Madrid suburbs has also advanced through three stages of the Copa del Rey without conceding a single goal. Playing away, the team first convincingly defeated Manises with a 3-0 scoreline, but in the following rounds, they needed more than 90 minutes to overcome Orihuela (0-0, extra time 0-0, pens 3-0) and Granada (0-0, extra time 1-0). Last season, Getafe was stopped at the Round of 16 stage, losing at home to Sevilla (1-3).

• The team did not concede in 5 out of 7 previous matches in this tournament after 90 minutes.
• Getafe lost in regular time only once in the last seven matches in the Spanish Cup (4 wins and 2 draws).
• The club has not lost in regular time in six previous away matches in this cup (4 wins and 2 draws).

Pontevedra vs. Getafe: Match Prediction

The hosts of the upcoming match have already caused the biggest sensation of the current Spanish Cup. In the previous stage, the team defeated last year's finalist of this tournament and Spanish Super Cup participant – Mallorca. The victory over Villarreal is also notable, as the Valencians are fighting for a Champions League spot. Pontevedra has already gotten a taste for it and might well handle one of the Primera's underdogs.

I'm confident Getafe won't score more than once. The team struggled to get past two previous lower-league opponents in Spain, failing to score any goals in regular time. It's also worth noting that Pepe Bordalas' side scores the least in La Liga – averaging 0.6 goals per match. Additionally, Pontevedra aims to defend well and has conceded only 1 goal in the last three Copa del Rey matches. Therefore, I predict – Getafe Individual Total Under 1.5
