🏆 New changes introduced for the 25/26 Copa del Rey

The King's Cup 25/26 introduces significant changes.

The RFEF has decided that the first two rounds will be played by geographical proximity, dividing Spain into four zones in the first round and two in the second, to facilitate travel.

The preliminaries of the regional teams will be home and away and will be played on weekends.

In addition, the clubs of the Supercup will continue in a separate draw from the First Division teams in the round of 16, if they qualify.

This year there will be no El Clásico or Madrid derby until the quarterfinals, ensuring that these great rivalries are only experienced in decisive stages.
