Real Madrid will look to secure their place in the round of 16 when they face fourth division side Deportiva Minera in the Copa del Rey on Monday evening.

The La Liga leaders will use this game as a warm-up game for the Supercopa de Espana, which is scheduled to begin in Saudi Arabia next week.

The president of Deportiva Minera has reduced the price of the Copa del Rey game, but it would be interesting to see how the club performs in front of the packed home crowd.

The fourth division team overcame the hurdle of the second round against Alaves. Sandji Baradji’s goal in the 107th minute was canceled out by a Garcia penalty and the game ended in a penalty shootout with Ceportiva Minera having the last laugh.

Real Madrid head into Copa del Rey action with a 2-1 comeback win over Valencia thanks to a last-minute winner from Bellingham. They came from behind with 10 men and won a La Liga game for the first time in 25 years.
