The Spanish Copa del Rey has reached it’s final stage. Valencia and Getafe are fighting for the trophy this season. The final will be played tonight at the Vicente Calderon starting with 22.00 CET. I will cover Valencia vs Getafe live online for you and provide extended live text commentary, live streams and videos with the most important events during the final. Just revisit this page once the game kicks-off.
Valencia come into this final after a series of three back to back La Liga defeats against Mallorca, Real Murcia and Racing Santander. In general Ronald Koeman’s squad had a poor season and this trophy would be the only chance to save it.
Getafe didn’t impress in the La Liga. They where not constant at all and managed only local big results without managing to keep a high pace. For example, Michael Laudrup’s team defeated Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu. They impressed in the UEFA Cup though and only an incredible bad fortune prevented them to eliminate Bayern Munich and to play for the final.

Valencia vs Getafe Odds
The major bookmakers consider Valencia favorites to win the Copa del Rey. But Getafe proved more than once this season that they are capable of producing the surprise. They also seem prepared for this cup games as they almost managed to reach the UEFA Cup semi-finals during a dramatic game against Bayern Munich. I have posted the odd comparison for this match.
