Real Betis have the advantage of playing at home as they take on Valencia in the final of the 2022 Copa del Rey. Both sides haven’t had strong runs ahead of this game but this is where they will hope their best sides turn up. Real Betis are losing their grip as far as the top four push in La Liga is concerned, and for now they will want to give their all for a win here. They go into this game straight from a 1-0 loss at home to Elche – their first defeat in five matches but third without scoring. Three of their last five matches have produced under 2.5 goals and they have just two clean sheets in their last six matches. In their last three meetings with Valencia, Real Betis are unbeaten and will hope to stretch it here, especially after having scored two or more goals in each of the three meetings.

The visitors, Valencia are coming from a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Villarreal away from home. That was their second straight loss and a fourth straight winless outing. They have two clean sheets in the last five matches while they have failed to score in two of the five games as well. Both sides have scored in two of Valencia’s last three matches and facing Betis, they have not kept a clean sheet in the last six matches. The last time they faced off in a Copa del Rey game was in 2019, and on that occasion, Valencia managed a 1-0 win. Going into this game, four of their last five matches have produced under 2.5 goals and one area they will be keen on addressing is the defence, after conceding two goals in each of their last two matches
