Lugo hosts Mirandes in the Spanish Copa del Rey 1/32 finals. The match will be played on Thursday, December 16th at Estadio Anxo Carro (Lugo)
Since 2012, Lugo has been constantly playing in Segunda. And the White-Reds can already be considered the regulars of this tournament. At the same time, they managed to rise to the top ten only once (in the 2016/2017 season). And, for example, last spring they were ranked only 18th, and only one point separated them from the relegation). Against this background, Ruben Albes's charges (it was he who managed to save the project from being relegated in April) have noticeably stepped up in the current season. Especially recently: Lugo has not lost for more than a month, and the last defeat dates back to November 6th. However, the White-Reds won only once, beating Amorebieta with a 3-1 score right after their misfire. Then there were five draws in a row, taking into account the cup.

Mirandes never played in Segunda until 2012. After holding out in the second division for five years, the team left it but returned in 2019. And the Boars managed to finish in the middle of the standings two times (in 10th and 11th places). But at the same time, Mirandes twice reached the cup semifinals over the past decade. It also started well in the current draw, but is there any sense to waste energy on the Copa del Rey? Now the Boars are clearly not doing very well in Segunda. They gained only one victory in the previous nine matches, beating just Lugo. But in the last round, Mirandes managed to achieve a vital result: the club beat its direct competitor, Real Sociedad B. Now no one will reproach the Boars for being knocked out of the cup.
Mirandes beat Lugo in November. That game once again confirmed the tendency of recent years: in this pair, the home side usually does not lose. It has four victories (three of them were gained by Lugo) and three draws. Lugo is not in the best shape at the moment, but it will play at home, and the opponents will probably not waste their energy on Copa. We bet on the home team to win with a zero handicap.
Prediction for the match: Lugo to win with 0.0 handicap
