Who will win between Club Portugalete and Deportivo Alavés?

Based on recent form and model analysis, Club Portugalete are the favourites to win the Copa del Rey tie. Their five-match unbeaten run and defensive solidity give them a clear edge over a Deportivo Alavés side on a three-match losing streak. Cup upsets are common, and the hosts' momentum is a key factor.

Which team has better form heading into this match?

Club Portugalete have significantly better form, with four wins and a draw in their last five matches. Deportivo Alavés have lost three in a row, conceding six goals and scoring only four. The contrast in recent results heavily favours the home side and is a major reason for the model's lean.

Will both teams score in the match?

Given Portugalete's defensive solidity — just four goals conceded in five matches — and Alavés' modest scoring output, both teams scoring is not a certainty. However, Alavés' attack could find a breakthrough. CheckLive's analysis suggests a low-scoring contest where under 2.5 goals is plausible.
