RM vs VAL Dream11: Real Madrid are just two games away from winning their first trophy of the season as they prepare for the semi-final cash against Valencia Basket in the Copa del Rey at Palacio de Deportes José María Martín Carpena on Saturday night.

But as Valencia showed in the last game, when they ripped the mickey out of every prediction and defeated the mighty and the favourites Barcelona 78-82, that in the of games, the form goes out of the window and any team can beat anyone on the given day, Real Madrid negotiated their quarter-final game against Bilbao Basket with a 93-83 win at Palacio de Deportes José María Martín Carpena.
