Valladolid hosts Betis in the Spanish Copa del Rey 1/16 finals. The match will be played on Wednesday, January 5th at Estadio José Zorrilla (Valladolid)
Real Valladolid is currently playing in the Segunda, but next season, we will probably see the White and Violets in the elite. At the moment, the team is on the 3rd line in the standings with 40 points scored after 22 rounds. Pacheta's charges are in good shape now. They gained four consecutive victories in all tournaments.

Betis finished last year unsuccessfully, suffering a defeat from Athletic Bilbao (3-2). The start of the new year was not good for the Green-Whites either, as they lost to Celta Vigo at home (0-2). Now Manuel Pellegrini's charges are obliged to make amends for those failures and try to advance to the 1/8 finals of the Spanish Cup. And they have every chance of doing it.
The upcoming match will be the 95th in the history of head-to-head confrontations between Valladolid and Betis. To date, Valladolid has 25 victories, and Betis has 35. Six of the last seven matches in different tournaments ended with Under 2.5 goals scored. The last time Valladolid lost to Betis at home was back in 2019. Yes, the White and Violets are in good shape at the moment. But I'm not sure that they will play to their limit. Still, the main task for them is to gain promotion to LaLiga. The cup will only take away strength. Betis needs a victory after two consecutive defeats in the Spanish championship. Reaching the 1/8 finals of the Copa del Rey will allow the Green-Whites to regain their good name at least partially.
Prediction for the match: Betis to win with 0.0 handicap
