Two years after last facing off, Sporting Gijon and Valencia renew their rivalry, meeting in the Copa del Rey fourth round. This match will mark the fourth straight time the two meet in the cup competition. Gijon are keen to stop Valencia’s dominance, and below we have a prediction.
Gijon’s Copa journey started in the second round after a first-stage bye. They saw off Caudal Deportivo 1-0 before beating Mirandes 2-0. With progression, things get tougher, and they will look to avoid a third straight defeat to Valencia.
Their latest matchup was in 2023, Valencia winning 4-0 with Gijon failing to score in two straight games against Valencia.
Valencia have only suffered defeat once in the last five matches against Gijon. That was in the Copa del Rey back in 2019, but they have three wins in that run.
Six times in their last 10 meetings with Gijon, Valencia kept clean sheets, a record they’d love to extend here. They aren’t on a very good run though, heading into this match, off the back of a 2-1 loss to Atletico Madrid in La Liga.
That left them without a win in 90 minutes in the last four matches. One of those was in the Copa, where they had to go through extra time to see off FC Cartagena 2-1 following a 1-1 draw in regular time.

Our Sporting Gijon vs Valencia Prediction
Valencia have dominated their most recent meetings with Gijon and will hope for the same here. They haven't had a great run ahead of this game, though, and there could be a case of confidence lacking. In their last four away matches especially, Valencia are winless.
Gijon will hope to take advantage here, even as they have struggled in this fixture themselves. Looking at both teams’ recent results, we expect an end-to-end battle here. Our prediction for Gijon v Valencia is BTTS.
