Latest football match prediction: Talavera vs Real Madrid
Talavera made a strong impression in this season's Copa del Rey, beating Rayo Majadahonda 4-1 in the first round at the end of August, before going on to overcome Malaga 2-1 in the second round in early December.
Coach Alejandro Sandroni's team entered this match after a 2-1 victory against Merida AD, a result that placed them seventh in the domestic league standings with 24 points after 16 games.
The home team, founded in 2011, has never competed above the Spanish Third Division, and they earned promotion back to this league from the Fourth Division last season.
Talavera reached this stage of the Copa del Rey once before, in the 2017-18 season, so a victory on Wednesday night would create new historical milestones for the club. This is considered one of the most important matches in the team's relatively short existence.
Real Madrid will have no intention of going easy on their opponents in this match, as coach Xabi Alonso needs positive results to ease the pressure surrounding his future.
Los Blancos secured a crucial 2-1 victory against Alaves on Sunday, narrowing the gap with league leaders Barcelona to just four points in the La Liga standings.
However, the Spanish royal club has only won two of their last nine matches in all competitions. Before the winter break in Spain, they still have two more matches to play, against Talavera on Wednesday evening and Sevilla in La Liga on Saturday.
Real Madrid have identified La Liga and the Champions League as their top two priorities this season, but the Copa del Rey is also a historically significant competition for the club, where they have won 20 times, making them the third most successful team in the tournament's history.
Los Blancos last won the Copa del Rey in the 2022-23 season, and they also reached the final in the 2024-25 season, but lost to Barcelona 2-3.
