Prediction published on Nov 9, 2026 11:32 AM by Dario in Spain - Copa Del Rey | Modified on Nov 9, 2026 11:32 AM
Tavernes host Valencia in the Copa Del Rey on November 10, 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 20:00 local time. Tavernes reached this round by overcoming Maracena on penalties after two drawn matches. Their reward is a meeting with a former winner of the competition, although Valencia arrive after a difficult run of results. The visitors lost 3-0 to Real Madrid in their latest match and have won only once in their last five. Tavernes have also struggled recently, but their cup progress gives them another opportunity to test themselves against more established opposition.
Tavernes had to be patient against Maracena. Neither of their two meetings produced a winner, so penalties decided who advanced. Their Copa Del Rey record this season stands at two draws from two matches, with averages of 0.5 goals scored and 0.5 conceded per game. Those figures suggest that their cup run has been built on close contests rather than a high volume of goals.
Results across Tavernes' last five matches have been less encouraging: one win and four defeats, with averages of 0.6 goals scored and 1.4 conceded. Their most recent listed result was a 2-0 loss to CF Gandía on November 1. The difference between that five-match record and their two cup draws is an important part of this preview. Tavernes have found a way through in the Copa Del Rey, but their broader recent results show how difficult it has been to turn competitive performances into wins.
The source article describes this as Tavernes' first appearance this far into the competition. Having already survived a penalty shootout, they now face a different challenge: finding a result against a Valencia side whose recent league form is poor but whose Copa Del Rey away record remains strong. For Tavernes, scoring may be particularly important. Their average of 0.6 goals across the last five matches leaves little room for error if the visitors continue their cup scoring streak.
Valencia come into the tie following a 3-0 defeat to Real Madrid on November 7. The result extended an unconvincing spell: their last five matches have brought one win, two draws and two defeats, while they have averaged 0.8 goals scored and 1.4 conceded. The source article also notes that Valencia have managed only one win in their last five league games, making the cup a chance to improve the mood around their results.
Valencia have won the Copa Del Rey before, including a 2019 final against Barcelona, but that history does not remove the questions raised by their current form. Their latest defeat was by three goals, and their recent scoring average is below one goal per match. They therefore travel into this fixture needing a more effective performance than their recent results have provided.
Their record in this competition, however, offers a clear contrast. Valencia are unbeaten in their last 19 away matches in the Copa Del Rey and have scored at least once in every one of those games. They have also found the net in 24 of their last 25 Copa Del Rey matches overall. Those runs do not guarantee another goal, but they provide stronger evidence for Valencia's attacking prospects here than their latest five-match average does.
Valencia's cup matches have often featured an early goal. There has been at least one first-half goal in 26 of their last 29 Copa Del Rey fixtures, and Valencia have led at half-time in eight of their last 13 away matches in the competition. An early lead would change the demands on a Tavernes side that has scored only three goals across its last five matches.
The two teams bring different kinds of form into this Copa Del Rey meeting. Tavernes advanced after two draws with Maracena, yet have lost four of their last five matches overall. Valencia have also found wins hard to come by recently, but their 19-match unbeaten away run in the cup and their consistent scoring record in the competition stand out.
That contrast makes Valencia the stronger side on the supplied evidence, though Tavernes' route through the previous round is a reminder that a draw can keep a cup tie alive. Valencia will be looking to respond to the Real Madrid defeat, while Tavernes will need to improve on their recent scoring rate to put the visitors under sustained pressure. The supplied win probabilities put Valencia at 79%, Tavernes at 6% and a draw at 15%; the visitors' Copa Del Rey away record gives the clearest factual basis for that advantage.
