Betis go into the final as favorites, and with good reason. They currently sit fifth in La Liga under the leadership of Manuel Pellegrini, only just outside the Champions League places and 15 points clear of 10th-place Valencia. They’re brimming with talent, too, with the likes of William Carvalho, Juanmi and Nabil Fekir good enough to grace most top sides.
Possibly their biggest advantage, though, comes from the fact that the Copa del Rey final takes place at la Cartuja in Betis’ home city of Seville. Put it all together and there’s good reason to think Los Verdiblancos will win their first Copa since 2005.
Valencia have taken the trophy more recently than that, in 2019, and have a much stronger history in the competition, with eight wins to Betis’ two. But they’ll need to improve on the form that’s left them mired in mid-table if they’re to take something positive from this season.
They’ll look to Portuguese forward Gonçalo Guedes for their goals; he hit a stunning strike against Athletic Club to see them into the final and has the skill to challenge any defense.
The 2022 Copa del Rey final is all set up to be a classic — and you can watch it live online if you know how. Read on and we’ll give you all the details.
