Real Madrid v Barcelona Copa del Rey Prediction – Preview
Real Madrid C.F.
Real Madrid advanced to the semi-final round by defeating city neighbours Atletico Madrid in the quarter-final last January. Alvaro Morata fired the Colchoneros ahead on 19 minutes, but Rodrygo netted in the second half to put them on terms. In extra time, Karim Benzema finally put Real Madrid ahead in the first period of extra time, and Vinicius Jr added the insurance goal in second extra period stoppage. Los Blancos have since had mixed results in games, as they won a record-extending Club World Cup, stayed in the hunt for the LaLiga title and winning their first UEFA Champions League final 16 leg. Most recently, they again went up against Atletico, wherein Alvaro’s late goal equalised Jose Maria Gimenez’ goal in the Spanish top-flight. Manager Carlo Ancelotti has shown optimism prior to their semi-final tie against Barcelona, saying that they were “confident, as always”. However, will they weather key injuries to get the win?
F.C. Barcelona
Barcelona bagged their spot in the Copa del Rey semi-final by defeating Real Sociedad 1-0 in the quarter-final last January. The Erreala were reduced to 10 men earlier after Brais Mendez’ hard tackle on Sergio Busquets. Barca capitalised on their edge when Ousmane Dembele fired in a low-shot into the near post. Since then, the Blaugrana have had mixed fortunes. While they continue to top LaLiga, they have also been knocked out of Europe in the Europa League. Their last outing saw them bow to Almeria 0-1. Moreover, striker Robert Lewandowski and Pedri sustained injuries entering this semi-final tie. Manager Xavi has said in a pre-match presser that Real Madrid are the favourites in this fixture. Can playing the underdog spark life into Los Blancos to win the game?
