Fuenlabrada VS Real Madrid Soccer Tips and Match Prediction Spanish Copa Del Rey

Fuenlabrada are on 2nd place in Segunda B, so they have been doing well so far. On Thursday, they take on Real Madrid in the first-leg of Copa del Rey tie in round of 32. “It’s a very nice game both for the club and the city. We approach to it as to any other match. Real Madrid is the best team in the world. They are very efficient, especially against sides such as ours, from lower division. Nonetheless, we are going to enjoy this experience and try to make things difficult for them. We need to be realistic as we are a Segunda B side, facing the current title holders of Champions League and La Liga,” said goalkeeper Jordi Codina, who spent several years at Real Madrid, mostly in youth teams.

 

Real Madrid haven’t won Copa del Rey since 2014 and coach Zinedine Zidane claims that now they’re motivated to do so. “We’re excited to play in it, as we like to play in every competition. I don’t consider it a minor trophy, for me it’s one of the trophies that we can win and that’s our intention. Our ambition is to win it because we can. We want to give everything and put in a good performance tomorrow. That’s it. When you wear this club’s shirt, you’re going out to win every game, official matches and friendlies,” he said. Many first-choice players are going to be rested.

 

In conclusion, I believe that visitors are favourites of this clash. Although Fuenlabrada are in good form these days, the difference in quality appear to be significant so perhaps ‘Los Blancos’ may be able to get a comfortable victory.
