Deportiva Minera vs Real Madrid Preview: Predicted Lineup, Team News, Kickoff Time, How To Watch & Live Stream
Real Madrid will be looking to comfortably advance to the last 16 of the Copa del Rey when they play Segunda Federacion—Group 4 team Club Deportiva Minera on Monday.
Los Blancos face the Spanish minnows on the back of a dramatic 2-1 victory away at Valencia in La Liga. That game saw Jude Bellingham clinch the winner deep into stoppage time. Vinicius Jr was also shown a red card in that match.
Notably, this cup game will mark the first-ever encounter between Real Madrid and Deportiva Minera. Managed by Popi, the club earned promotion last season as champions of Tercera Federacion – Group 13.
In the previous round of the Copa del Rey, Deportiva Minera secured a famous victory over La Liga outfit Alaves on penalties. Before beating Alaves, the Murcia-based team knocked out Tudelano from the cup competition.
Throughout its illustrious history, Real Madrid has won the Copa del Rey 20 times. Their latest victory was in the 2022/23 season when they defeated Osasuna 2-1 in the final.
