Unionistas de Salamanca and Barcelona will meet again in the Copa Del Rey Round of 16 at the Campo de Futbol Reina Sofía Stadium, Salamanca Thursday, January 18, 2024. Here’s the preview, h2h stats, predicted line-up, TV channel info, live streaming service providers and how to watch online.
Unionistas, a team that plays in the Spanish La Liga 3 and is currently in 12th position, will face a big challenge. They will not be playing at home, which will certainly give Barcelona an advantage. However, don’t underestimate Unionistas. They had just beaten Villarreal in the previous round of 32 of the Spanish King’s Cup, showing that they have the potential to shock.
However, Barcelona is not Villarreal. Barcelona is one of the strongest teams in the world and they have not faced any significant challenges in the King’s Cup this season. With the addition of new striker, Vitor Roque, Barcelona’s squad is even stronger and ready to face any challenge.
Barcelona also has extra motivation to win. They really value the King’s Cup and see it as an opportunity to win the title this season. Moreover, Barca just lost the Spanish Super Cup title after they lost badly in the final round to Real Madrid on Monday, January 15.
With increasingly improving performance, where they have just achieved three consecutive wins, Barcelona is expected to beat Unionistas easily.
However, although the Unionistas may not be a match for Barcelona, they have shown that they can surprise. They may not have high hopes of progressing far in the Spanish King’s Cup, but they will definitely try hard to put up a good match.
This match is also interesting because this is the first meeting between Unionistas and Barcelona. This provides an added element of mystery and excitement to the game. How the two coaches, Dani Ponz and Xavi Hernandez, designed a strategy to qualify for the next round.
