The Spanish Cup (Copa Del Rey) continues today with 3 very interesting matches. Hercules will play Osasuna, Rayo Vallecano will play against Mallorca and Malaga will host the match against Getafe. These matches will be hosted for the firth round of the Spanish Cup first leg.

Hercules – Osasuna :

Hercules is currently on the second Spanish division and is trying hard for a return to the Primera Division but currently is on the 7th position with 28 points (Real Valladolid leads with 35 and one game less). On the other hand, Osasuna is on the 12th position with 17 points and their main target is to clearly avoid relegation. The 12th position is certainly not secure as 7 teams below them have a margin of just 4 points.

The fact is that both teams will not play with the strongest squads possible as managers will want to rest some key players for the championship matches (Osasuna is playing Deportivo on an away match). This match has the draw all written on it and the luck of clear favorites is reflecting on the online sportsbetting odds.

Rayo Vallecano – Mallorca :

Rayo is hosting the match against Mallorca. This is a match that again has the draw presenting more chances as Mallorca is on a superior side in contrast to Rayo as there is always the second leg match. Rayo wants to return to first division while Mallorca wants to be in the top 4 in order to secure a ticket for the Champions League play-offs (Mallorca is currently on 4th position with 30 points after 16 matches). Mallorca’s manager is expected to rest some key players in order to get the maximum for the Primera Division match against Real Madrid on Sunday.

Malaga – Getafe :

Malaga is struggling in order to avoid relegation (18th position with 13 points) this year and the cup tournament is something that they are not interested in. Malaga is expecting to rest many players as on Sunday they will be playing a very important match against Athletic Bilbao. On the other hand, Getafe is firmly established on the top section of the standings of the 7th position with 27 points and with a good chance for participation to the EUFA Europa League. Getafe will not have the services of their attacking duo Roberto Soldado and Jaime Gavilan. This is another match that a draw is much likely as an outcome but however, Getafe has the quality to secure the win.
