History:

Valencia CF will visit Athletic Club in the Copa del Rey semi-finals on Thursday, the 10th of February at 9:30 pm kick-off time at the Estadio San Mamés which will be played over two legs with the away goals rule abolished for the semifinal tie.

Valencia CF and Athletic Club have not crossed paths in the Copa del Rey. However, they do share some cup history which dates back to the early forties, fifties and sixties.

In recent times, Valencia CF have picked up a series of draws from their latest visits to San Mamés. Last time out, Valencia CF claimed a well-deserved point through a second-half strike from Gabriel Paulista over the hour mark.
