Barcelona Over 2.5 Total Goals
The only team from third rank of Spanish football left in this stage of Copa del Rey is Ceuta and they will host one of the biggest teams in the world, Barcelona.
While that will be great for their fans as they will get to see Barca in action, the team will likely not be too pleased as Barcelona is the clear and absolute favourite to win this game. We have no doubt that the guests will win, but we also expect them to score at least three goals in this game.
Over 1.5 Total Goals in First Half
Since we expect Barcelona to score three or more goals in this match, we can also see plenty of goals being scored in the first half of the game as well – or at least two goals.
After all, the difference in quality between the two teams is so huge and Barcelona will be flying high after beating Real Madrid a few days ago in the Spanish Super Cup final, so two or more goals in the first half sound reasonable.

Ceuta vs Barcelona Preview: Recent form, News, and Probable Lineups
While the guests are the absolute favourite, we might still see an interesting game. So, here's a better look at both teams ahead of their duel:
Ceuta
It's been a memorable run for Ceuta in Spanish Copa del Rey and while it will likely end on Thursday, at least it will end with a bang as Barcelona comes to town. After all, Ceuta has struggled the entire season in Primera RFEF, the third rank of Spanish football, and they are currently last in the standings with just eight points from nineteen games, making their success in the cup even greater.
While Ceuta doesn't have any fresh injury concerns ahead of this game, they were left without Liberto Beltran as he joined Alcoyano.
Ceuta Predicted Lineup:
Montagud – Garcia, Lafarge, Gutierrez, Macias – Reina, Lopez – Gonzalez, Cuevas, Redondo – Rios
Barcelona
Only a few days after their impressive win over their biggest rival Real Madrid in El Clasico that was played in Riyadh as a part of the Spanish Super Cup final, Barcelona will meet a low-ranking team in their quest to reach the quarter-finals of Copa del Rey. The team has been in great form recently and this should be only a footnote in their season.
On top of that, Barcelona has no injuries at the moment and they have a full squad on their disposal, but some key players will certainly get a bit of a rest against Ceuta.
Barcelona Predicted Lineup:
Pena – Bellerin, Garcia, Christensen, Alba – Roberto, Kessie, Torre – Raphinha, Torres, Fati
Starting Lineups
Check the starting lineups around one hour before the match begins.
Player to Watch: Raphinha
Ever since he arrived from Leeds at the start of the season, Raphinha struggled to find his place and his role, even though he was given plenty of chances as he appeared in fifteen La Liga games – seven of which he started.
However, in all those games, Raphinha only managed to score twice and add a couple assists, which is far from great. Still, this Copa del Rey duel could be a great chance for him to do well and gain some confidence back, so Raphinha is our choice as a player to watch.
