Spain Copa Del Rey betting 12 October

Celta Vigo tb Valladolid @ 2.5 (Bet365) 2pts

Both teams making changes for this match, but Valladolid's are much more striking. Celta have already announced their starting lineup, and it contains 3 or 4 first team regulars, while most of the other regulars (bar 3 who are being rested completely) will be on the bench.

Valladolid have left out of their squad the entire starting 11 from their league match against Almeria at the weekend. Of their 18 man squad, 6 of them are called up from the B team, and a total of 9 of the 18 players have yet to play a single minute so far this season.

Edit - That match is a midday kickoff, by the way (tomorrow is a bank holiday in Spain)

San Roque to qualify v Andorra @ 2.1 (Paddy Power) 3pts

Two teams from Segunda B (Andorra in group 3, San Roque in group 4), and the way the cup is organised means the winner of this is guaranteed to meet one of the big 7 teams (the ones that qualified for Europe, i.e. Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Villarreal, Sevilla, Atletico Madrid or Bilbao).

Can't find team news for Andorra, but given what's at stake for a club of their size, it'd be very surprising if they're planning on any rotations. San Roque are almost at full strength, only missing one first choice striker.

Andorra are a newly promoted side, having won their Tercera group last year, while San Roque came up from Tercera 3 years ago, and have established themselves as a fairly strong side at this level, finishing 5th and 8th in the last 2 seasons.

At the weekend, an understrength San Roque (with 4 first teamers missing, 3 of whom are available again tonight) battered 2nd placed (at the time, now down to 3rd) Linense 4-0. They're currently 6th in their group, 1pt off the playoffs, with a 2-1-1 away record, the defeat coming against 2nd placed Betis B.

Andorra are in the relegation zone in their group, with 7pts from 8 games. They've already lost 3 of their 4 home games in the league, to the teams 1st, 6th and 12th.

Always difficult to try to compare sides across two different groups in Segunda B, but everything points to San Roque being the stronger side, in better form, and I'd have them as the favourites to progress here.

Didn't get to watch the match, but going by the text commentary, it seems Celta were never in any danger once they got the first on 11 minutes, Valladolid barely threatened.

Full-time Celta 4-1 Valladolid

What's the 2nd part of the double you've got, Basher? San Roque to win outright?

Should've mentioned above, by the way, the ties go to extra time and penalties if necessary, they have to be decided on the day one way or another.

San Roque went 2 up in 13 minutes and ended up winning 3-1.

Very nice 6/1 double there, Basher

Cheers Wayne. Wiped out the losses from the weekend, at least.
