Analysis Albacete

The home team comes to this stage of the Copa del Rey (16th Finals) after having eliminated Leganés with a away win by (1‑2) in the previous round. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 8 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the Segunda División, they got a home loss against Málaga by (1‑3). In the last 10 home matches Albacete has won 4, tied 1 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 19 of the last 22 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times, but have turned the score around in 2. In the last 10 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 10 goals between minutes (46'‑60').

Albacete come into this fixture on the back of a 3–1 home defeat to Málaga in a La Liga 2 clash, with their only goal coming from Einar Galilea (own goal). It is worth noting that the hosts reached this stage of the Copa del Rey after eliminating Leganés in the previous round. The side usually line up in a 3-4-3 formation, favouring a fast style of play built around constant transitions.
