Valencia

Current form
Valencia continue to struggle in the current La Liga season. After a 1-1 draw with Sevilla, the team is bottom of the table with 13 points. Despite the critical situation, Los Ches managed to show a good performance in the Copa del Rey, where they knocked out Eldense (2-0) on January 7. Away problems remain a sore point for Valencia, who have failed to win their last 13 away games. The dropped points from winning positions also indicate instability in defense and difficulties in maintaining a leading position.
Disqualifications and injuries
Valencia face significant personnel losses ahead of their next match: Thierry Correia (knee injury), Mossa Diakhaby (knee injury), Jose Gaya (muscle injury), Georgi Mamardashvili (leg injury) and Fran Perez (knee injury) will all miss the game.
Interesting trends for betting
- Both teams have scored in Valencia last three matches in all competitions
- Valencia have conceded in five of their last six La Liga away games
- Hugo Duro has scored two of Valencia last three goals in the Copa del Rey
- Valencia have kept clean sheets in their last two Copa del Rey games
Probable line-up: Cristian Rivero – Gabriel Paulista, Charlie Paquette, Dimitri Foulquier – Yunus Musa, Hugo Guillamon, Andre Almeida – Samu Castillejo, Hugo Duro, Diego Lopez

1.88Tip and bets
The upcoming Copa del Rey match between Ourense and Valencia is expected to be a high-scoring game with many goals. Ourense has already demonstrated its ability to score in key matches, having knocked out Valladolid (3:2) in the previous round. The team playing style is aimed at attacking, which makes them dangerous even against stronger opponents.
Valencia, despite their current problems in La Liga, have shown that they can be dangerous in attack, especially in the Copa del Rey, where they recently beat Eldense 2-0. Their inconsistent defence and need to win can lead to open play from both sides. Valencia have historically been a goal-scoring side in cup games, which increases the chances of a goal-heavy encounter.
Our betting tip is total over 2.5 goals, odds 2.10
Bet on the outcome
In the Spanish Cup match between Ourense and Valencia, the visitors are clear favorites. Valencia, despite problems in the championship, has a much higher class and experience, which should affect the result. Ourense, having shown a decent fight in the previous rounds, is unlikely to cope with the pressure of the attacking line of the visitors. Given the difference in the level of the teams and the motivation of Valencia to confidently go further, we expect them to win with a difference of at least two goals.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1) on Valencia. We bet on it with odds of 2.35
