The difference-makers

Athletic Club. Athletic Club depends on Robert Navarro Muñoz to sustain its scoring output, having failed to convert in nearly half of its tournament fixtures. Without that offensive contribution, the hosts must rely heavily on defensive stability to secure a positive outcome against a visiting side that struggles on the road.

Getafe CF. While Enes Ünal leads the visiting attack, the team has struggled to find the net in half of its tournament fixtures, amplifying the burden on a unit that generates low shot volumes and limited possession on the road.
