Sporting Gijon take on Valencia at El Molinon in the Copa del Rey last 32, with both sides expected to adopt a cautious approach. Therefore, we are tempted to place our bets on 1-1 draw. Los Rojiblancos head into the match with solid momentum, taking 1.80 points per game overall and keeping clean sheets in 60% of their recent matches. Gijón’s defensive structure has been key, conceding just 0.6 goals per game, while BTTS has landed in only 30% of their fixtures. The return of defenders Lucas Perrin and Justin Smith after Segunda Division bans further strengthens their back line.
Valencia, on the other hand, are seen as slight favourites on paper, but their form has been mixed, with just a 30% win rate overall. Away from home, Los Che average 2.83 total goals per game, although they also concede 1.33 on the road. Eray Comert is a doubt after picking up a knock in a 3-1 loss to Atletico, meaning Baptiste Santamaria could be drafted in at the back. Historically, Valencia have had the edge in this matchup, winning 53% of H2H meetings, but Gijon’s discipline suggests a tight contest.
Considering Gijon’s low-scoring profile and Valencia's struggles on the road, we believe that there is big value in betting on Under 2.5 goals, alongside Half-Time Draw and Draw.
This Copa del Rey match will be played on Tuesday 16 December 2025 at 20:00.
