All games will be played in the midweek slot between Dec. 16–18, 2025. Madrid, for example, travel to the home of Talavera, the side currently rooted to the foot of the third division, in between two league clashes with Alavés and Sevilla before earning a little festive respite.

Barcelona face Guadalajara in the week which divvies up a visit from Osasuna and trip to Villarreal which—despite the club’s best efforts—will be played in Spain rather than Miami.

As part of last season’s famous domestic treble, Barcelona won the 2024–25 Copa del Rey crown. It was La Blaugrana’s first triumph since the 2020–21 season as they beat bitter Clásico foes Real Madrid 3–2 after extra time.

Pedri had opened the scoring for Barça midway through the first half, but quick-fire goals from Aurélien Tchouaméni and Kylian Mbappé turned the game on its head. Ferran Torres then equalized in the 84th minute, before unlikely match-decider Jules Koundé fired home the winner with just four minutes of extra time remaining.

Last season’s title was the 32nd for Barça since the competition began. Their first victory came in 1910 and they enjoyed particularly prolific runs in the 1980s and 2010s as they won 13 Copa del Rey finals across the two decades.

Athletic Club, who won the trophy in 2023–24, are second in the rankings with 24 titles, sitting ahead of Real Madrid on just 20. Xabi Alonso won the competition twice as a player with Los Blancos and will want to scoop the title in his first season in the dugout.

17 sides have reached the final previously without ever winning, including the likes of Getafe, Celta Vigo, Elche, Granada and Osasuna.
