    The Copa Del Rey final features none of the big three this year and looks an open battle between Real Betis and Valencia. Betis sit fifth in La Liga after a strong season while Valencia are tenth.

    Betis have won the cup on two previous occasions (1977 and 2005) while Valencia have won eight times including as recently as 2019. To make it to the final Betis progressed past Sociedad in the last eight before a semi-final success over Rayo Vallecano while Valencia beat Cadiz in the last eight and then Bilbao.

    The latest league meeting between these sides came way back in October and Betis won that one comfortably 4-1. It continues a recent trend that has seen Valencia win just one of their last five head-to-heads.

    Games involving Betis tend to be low-scoring with five of their last seven going under 2.5 goals with four of them going under 1.5. Five of the last six Valencia games have gone under 2.5 goals three of them going under 1.5.

    Juanmi is the leading goal getter for Real Betis with 14 this season while Borja Iglesias leads the way in the cup with four goals. Goncalo Guedes and Carlos Soler are leading goal getters for Valencia with 11 each.

    Real Betis vs Valencia: Match Stats

    Although just five places seperate these teams in the league it is actually 15 points when looking at the table. Betis being bigger than evens to win this game in 90 minutes looks the value play.

    The occasion and the record of both teams suggest that this will be a low scoring fixture. Normally it makes sense to take a player to score at any time but a single goal could decide this so take Borja Iglesias to net first as he has three in six and netted a brace in their league meeting.
