The strategy to determine the duel is not clear.
In the round of dieciseisavos of final, in front of a rival of Second Division B like the Cultural Leonese, Ernesto Valverde opted by rotar practically to all the team, leaving to the usual headlines out of the team and opting by the acting. The tactics worked and the Barcelona happened of round without difficulties, but everything will complicate in eighth of final.
The Raise is one of the teams disclosure in the present season and his path and LaLiga Santander to date like this shows it. Thus, play with players less usual goes to be a risk, since the group 'granota' is a team of clear ideas that already has showed that it can hurt to any one. In fact, it defeated to the Real Madrid in Santiago Bernabéu.
Nevertheless, it is necessary to have also very in account the level of fatigue that will accumulate the headlines if they also play of usual form in the eliminatory of Ccopa of Rey. In fact, the past season, like this went in practically the whole of the rounds, achieving results very positive - hganó the competition- but unchaining in a very wear# out team physically.
Of course, this physical wear accumulated in the bustled calendar culé supposed one of the fundamental causes of the elimination of the team of Ernesto Valverde in the Champions League to hands of the Rome. In this meeting, saw a team very fatigado and without hardly strengths to plant face to a Rome that finish goleando.
The Glass has to be for the less usual
The Glass of the King is an important title and precisely therefore it would have to serve so that the footballers that have fewer minutes in LaLiga claim . Malcom, Munir, Aleñá or Cillessen will arrive with many win to win the place and, if they play, will give a deserved rest to the 'heavy weights' to the pair that will have an important opportunity.
