Pontevedra is on the verge of returning to Segunda Division. Currently in the lower level, they are the leaders in their championship and demonstrating good form. They are unbeaten in 13 consecutive matches in all competitions. They currently have five consecutive victories, one of which was against another elite team, Villarreal, with a 1-0 win at home in the cup tournament.
Mallorca is having a good season in the elite of Spain, as evidenced by the team's sixth place in the temporary standings. They managed to win 1-0 as guests against Getafe in their last match, and now they face their first cup test. Exactly two years ago, Mallorca eliminated Pontevedra in the same competition, but it was not easy and it happened after extra time and a goalless draw in regular time.
Prediction: 1X double chance, under 2.5 goalsI think we can see a potential surprise here. Pontevedra has already eliminated Villarreal and is in good form, despite being in a lower level. We will also see how Mallorca approaches this tournament duel, but they may face difficulties again, as they did two seasons ago against the same opponent.
