Copa del Rey Predictions | Betting Tips and Odds 2024

Previous Winners

One of the first factors we consider before choosing our predictions is the previous winners. When making your prediction, you have to consider the previous winners, as they are usually favourites to be the tournament’s champion.

FC Barcelona has won the tournament 31 times, Athletic Bilbao is 23 times Copa del Rey winners, and Real Madrid has claimed the trophy 19 times. 

These three teams are still very much in the competition so far in the 2024 season. Real Madrid defeated Cacereno, Barcelona beat Intercity, and Bilbao thrashed Eldense to advance to this season’s round of 16 as expected.

They could go on to win the Copa del Rey title as they are very familiar with the competition and possess the arsenal to make it possible compared to other teams.

Fixtures

Fixtures are essential to making the Copa del Rey Predictions. In this tournament, we have different teams from all tiers of the league.

So, for instance, if a team from La Liga faces a team in the Segunda Division, you’ll most likely bet on the La Liga team because they are a better team.

A team from La Liga boasts more qualities than the team in the Segunda division. So once fixtures are available at every point in the competition, it’s advisable to research the teams you’re unfamiliar with to aid your prediction.

Standings

A top-placed team is different from a team in the middle or at the bottom of the table. This is because one would’ve had more wins than the other, and it speaks a lot about the quality of these teams.

You expect a team that is number one on the log to beat a team that probably occupies the 13th or 14th position on the same log. The difference in their position on the log is essential to note when discussing Copa del Rey’s predictions.

The Spanish Cup doesn’t have a table for various teams in the competition, but these teams have a position they occupy in their respective divisions. Therefore, comparing their standings is one of the factors that aid the Copa del Rey betting tips.

Statistics

Statistics are a crucial factor that you cannot neglect when it comes to betting. Your Copa del Rey tips become solid when you’ve been able to gather statistics about the team you intend to bet on.

Statistics could be the outcome of head-to-head matches between two teams in the Spanish Cup. It could also be the number of goals they’ve scored on home or away soil, the availability of the highest scorer in the team, bookings, the number of expected corners, and so on.

A bettor’s primary weapon is statistics, and you need to seek them to be able to make the best predictions.

Favourites

There are usually the underdog and the favourite in a contest between two teams. For instance, the just concluded Round of 32 matches between Eldense and Athletic Bilbao was one between two sides with a big difference in quality; Bilbao, a Spanish top-flight team and Eldense, a Primera Division side.

The La Liga side, who are the favourites, thrashed the Spanish third-tier team 6-1 to progress further in the competition. Although football can be tricky sometimes, the favourite has their way more in the competition than the underdog would.
