Sporting Gijón Valencia betting prediction

The away team comes to this stage of the Copa del Rey (Round of 16) after a away win by (0‑3) against La Nucia. In their last match, for the Super Cup, they got an away tie against Real Madrid by (4‑3) after a penalty shootout. In the last 10 away matches Valencia has won 2, tied 4 and lost 4. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 10 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Valencia comes for these round of 16 of the Copa del Rey unmotivated after having been eliminated from the European Super Cup, in the semi-finals, against Real Madrid. The greatest value of the visiting team lies in their ability to conduct their attacks through quick transitions. It should be noted that from a defensive point of view, difficulties increase when the opposing team attacks through the wings. The Uruguayan Edinson Cavani is the player responsible for putting the opponent's defense in the right direction, and his greatest quality is finishing. The coach of the visitors should not be able to count on central midfielder Nico González, as he is currently recovering from a metatarsal fracture.

Confirmed Lineup: Giorgi Mamardashvili, Toni Lato, Gabriel Paulista, Dimitri Foulquier, Cenk Özkacar, Gayá, Justin Kluivert, André Almeida, Yunus Musah, Samuel Lino, Edinson Cavani.
Coach: C. Corberán Vallet.
