Although the tournament has affected his preseason and has also harmed him in the last match of the first phase, played last week at home against Algeciras by losing two players due to injury (Pablo Marín and Rubén López), the truth is that Betis Baloncesto has taken this Spanish Cup very seriously and, in fact, its president, Pedro Fernández, already expressed his desire to win it in the summer. The other two quarter pairings are the Cartagena-Amics Castello and Movistar Estudiantes-San Pablo Burgos.
According to the rules of the draw, which was purely between these eight Primera FEB clubs, the team drawn first from each pairing will play the second leg at home.
