Los Blancos will hope to prevail against Osasuna and certainly have the firepower to get the job done. The club will focus on the Champions League, but winning the Copa del Rey will be a good start as they get into the final stretch of this season.
Osasuna, on the other hand, are 10th in the league and have won two of their last five games. Real Madrid are used to competing in major finals, but for Osasuna, this is a golden opportunity to win a major domestic trophy.
Real Madrid will be the favorites to win this game and have what it takes to get it done. A win for them.
