Cacereño vs Real Madrid preview
Cacereño
Cacereño will go into the match against Real Madrid with the opportunity of a lifetime of defeating the huge favorites in a competition where any mistake may lead to elimination.
Julio Cobo’s team has reached this competition stage after comfortably defeating Córdoba (3-0) and coming out on top vs. Girona (2-1).
Cacereño play in Group 5 of the Segunda Division RFEF -the fourth tier of the Spanish football league system- and are on a seven-game unbeaten run.
Real Madrid
All the pressure will be on Real Madrid’s side, as a loss to Cacereño would be one of the most embarrassing chapters in Los Blancos’ history.
The visitors, who last lifted the Copa del Rey trophy in the 2013-14 season, are having a very solid term, as they are sitting second in the LaLiga standings tied to leaders Barcelona with 38 points.
The current LaLiga and Champions League winners earned a 0-2 win against Valladolid last time out, while Barcelona failed to defeat city neighbors Espanyol at Camp Nou (1-1).
Cacereño vs Real Madrid: prediction
Real Madrid has won the Copa del Rey title on 19 occasions, being the third-most successful side in the tournament behind Athletic Bilbao (23) and Barcelona (31).
Truth is that Los Blancos have lived quite a few David vs Goliath episodes where the underdog managed to surprise everybody and kick them out in recent history: Alavés, Toledo, Real Unión, Alcorcón, and Alcoyano know what it feels like to pull off the upset against Real.
However, this Real Madrid hasn’t shown lots of flaws in their game with so much quality in all of their lines and will probably be motivated enough to try to lift the title after having won it only twice since 1993.
Prediction: Cacereño 0-3 Real Madrid
