Rayo Vallecano
Bergantinos will look to make amends for back-to-back losses to Union Adarve and Navalcarnero when they take on Rayo Vallecano in the Copa del Rey last 64. Bergantinos kicked off their Spanish Cup campaign with a 2-0 win over Tudelano, but Rayo will pose a much bigger threat for the hosts than their previous rivals. Uxio Da Pena, who found the net in the last Copa del Rey game, is widely expected to lead the line for the hosts.
Los Vallecanos, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 2-0 loss to Villarreal. Rayo are enjoying a very successful La Liga season, and regardless of which players will be deployed in the starting XI, away win should be considered. Both Radamel Falcao and Merquelanz should miss out with injuries, while all Martin, Nteka, Pozo, and Lopez are pushing for a start.
