Recreativo Huelva host Rayo Vallecano in the Copa del Rey round of 64 on 27 October 2026 at 23:00. The fourth-tier side sit top of their regional group after eight rounds and have won 16 of their last 17 home matches. Rayo, a La Liga club currently 16th and one point above the relegation zone, arrive without an away win this season. The gap in division and squad quality favours the visitors, though Recreativo's home form presents a genuine test.
Form and H2H
Recreativo are unbeaten in 11 consecutive matches with eight wins and three draws. They have conceded only 1.1 goals per game at home over their last ten outings and scored 1.9 on average. Their last five matches all went over 3.5 goals, showing attacking momentum. Rayo have won one of their last five league games and have not won away from home all season, losing three of their opening road trips before drawing the next two. Away from home, they concede 2.3 goals per game and score just 1.2. In head-to-head meetings, Recreativo have lost only one of their last nine encounters with Rayo.
Best bet
Rayo Vallecano to win. The visitors hold a significant quality advantage over fourth-tier opposition and the Copa del Rey offers a chance to reset after a difficult league campaign. Despite their poor away record, Rayo's squad depth and La Liga experience should prevail. At 1xBet, a Rayo win sits at 1.45.
Odds to watch
Recreativo's home record is strong enough to warrant attention on the draw. The hosts have drawn three of their last eleven matches and sit top of their group, suggesting defensive solidity. A draw pays 4.46 at 1xBet, 3.93 at 1Win, and 4.22 at 22Bet. For those backing Rayo, the 1.45 price at 1xBet reflects the gap between the divisions, though 1.48 at 1Win and 1.56 at 22Bet offer marginal alternatives.
