The Spanish FA will announce the host stadium for the 2019 Copa del Rey final on Monday, with the match due to take place on Saturday, May 25.

As things stand, the favourite venue is the Mestalla and Valencia have requested that their stadium marks its centenary year with the event, while Real Betis' Estadio Benito Villamarin is the main competition.

The decision will be revealed at 12:30 CET in a press conference on Monday, which is much earlier than it has been in previous years, when the finalists have been known before a venue was decided upon.
