The Date of Valencia: Real Madrid Will be Made Official Soon, with the Copa Date
The postponed game between Valencia and Real Madrid may already have a date and will affect the Copa del Rey
The game between Valencia and RealMadrid, postponed due to the DANA, continues to be the talk of the town. Days ago, it was announced that it would be played on January 2nd, but in the end it will not be possible. A new slot must be found in the calendar and the date will also affect the Copa del Rey.
The AFE's decision not to allow Valencia - Real Madrid to be played on January2nd will lead to a change of dates. This would go against the holidays included in the players' agreement and that is why they have refused. Therefore everything points to the fact that it will be played on the 3rd.
This is what El Chiringuito has confirmed, pointing to that date as the most likely for the game to take place. Although this will cause a change of dates that directly affects the Copa del Rey. The meringues have to face DeportivaMinera in the sixteenth round.
Everything was planned for the match to take place on January 5th, but it seems complicated. The required rest hours wouldn't be met, so it will be on another date. The information points to the day of Three Wise Men, on the 6th, when it could be celebrated.
A tight schedule to finish 2024 and start the year
Real Madrid face a Decemberfull of commitments, in which they will also play little at home. Since they faced Getafe on the 1st, they will notreturn to the Bernabéu until the 20th to say farewell to 2025 against Sevilla. In between, Atalanta, in the Champions League, the Intercontinental Cup and 3League games away from their stadium.
But it doesn't look like the start of the year is going to be any better, with a month of January full of various competitions. We've already talked about the match against Valencia and the sixteenth round of the Cup, all in the first week. But they also have to continue facing league commitments.
To these we must add the Spanish Super Cup and the remaining 2Champions League games that remain to be played. In total 7 games, which could be 9 if they reach the final in Saudi Arabia and the round of 16 in the Cup. All this in a season where injuries are beginning to be a concern.
