Copa del Rey
On Tuesday night, Segunda team Tenerife will be looking to surprise Real Mallorca in the last 16 of the Copa del Rey.
Tenerife form guideThe Islanders' form has been highly inconsistent of late, as a 1-0 home defeat against Elche last time out means that Tenerife have claimed just one win in their previous four games in all competitions. The run has left them midtable in the Segunda standings.
Their recent outings have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five competitive matches.
Tenerife has an inconsistent recent record in the Copa del Rey, as they have won just three of their last eight games over 90 minutes.
Their recent matches in the Copa have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in seven of their previous ten games in normal time.
The home team has a poor recent home record in the Copa del Rey, having won just one of their last four games on home soil.
Real Mallorca form guideThe visitor's recent form has been mixed, although they have lost just once in their previous nine matches in all competitions. Last time out, Los Piratas drew 1-1 on home soil against Celta Vigo.
The game against Celta followed a familiar low-scoring pattern for Mallorca’s recent games, as eight of their previous 11 matches in all competitions have produced under 2.5 goals.
The visitors have a decent recent record in the Copa del Rey, winning five of their last seven games in the competition, including recording three straight victories.
A strong defensive record has played a key role for Mallorca in recent Copa games, as they have kept clean sheets in six of their last seven matches.
What am I backing?This could be a fairly even contest, and I don’t expect a major goal haul. The bet I am backing under 2.5 goals scored.
