In last season's final which Barcelona won 5-2, he scored the fifth goal and scored twice against Athletic Bilbao in the semi final. He has scored 7 goals for the Catalans in LaLiga and scored twice when he last played against Real Madrid which they won 4-3 in last season's home fixture in LaLiga. Therefore, I fancy the Brazilian to score tonight.

Real Madrid beat Atletico 2-1 in the previous round and their previous cup match saw them win 3-2 against lowly Telavera 3-2 in the Copa Del Rey. Barcelona scored 5 past Athletic Bilbao in the previous round and though they had a 2-0 win in Copa Del Rey against Guadalajara, their last 2 meetings against Real Madrid in Cup meetings have been full of goals. The Cope Del Rey final ended 2-2 and the final last season of this cup ended with 7 goals, so I expect at least 4 goals tonight.

Both sides come into the final in good form, winning their respective last 5 outings. Real Madrid beat Atletico Madrid 2-1 in the semis whereas Barcelona crushed Bilbao 5-0. Real Madrid won their last meetings against the Catalans at home in October in the league but Barcelona beat them heavily last year as well to lift the cup and will feel confident of retaining the cup tonight following their performance against Bilbao.
