UE Tavernes will host Valencia at Mestalla in Copa del Rey
UE Tavernes will host Valencia at Mestalla in the first round of the Copa del Rey, Spain’s national cup competition.
The match is set for Wednesday, 28 October, at 9 p.m., and the date and time have not changed.
Tavernes’ own ground does not meet the federation’s requirements, so the game has been moved to Valencia’s stadium in the city of Valencia.
Tavernes will be the home team even though Valencia’s club, Mestalla, is hosting the match.
The clubs are due to meet to agree ticket arrangements, and early estimates put prices at 10 to 25 euros.
Free buses from Tavernes are planned for fans, with as many as needed, and the town is also working to have its municipal band play before the match.
The single-match tie will decide which team advances to the next round.
UE Tavernes will play Valencia in the Copa del Rey at Mestalla in València.
The first-round match is scheduled for Wednesday, 28 October, at 21:00.
Valencia will be designated the away team, while UE Tavernes will be the home team.
The venue was changed after UE Tavernes requested it; its own stadium does not meet federation requirements.
The clubs will discuss ticket arrangements, and Tavernes says free buses will be available for supporters.
