Edu thinks that victory in the Copa del Rey will boost Valencia's confidence for the final few games of the league season as they face a relegation struggle in the coming weeks.

Los Ché have the chance to put their league worries to one side on Wednesday night, however, as they travel to Madrid to take on Getafe in the final of the cup at Vicente Calderón.

Edu returned to the side at the weekend against Racing, but Valencia were beaten to see them slip to within five points of the drop zone. That defeat hit the team hard, but Edu has revealed that the players are attempting keep each other spirits high and creating a confident air ahead of the vital Copa del Rey match.

"We know where we are and we talk about how important each game is every day, but now we have to try and forget what is happening in the league and to go to the final feeling happier and more positive and have a different dynamic, because it has not been easy to reach this far," he said.

"Now we really must take advantage of this day and go out to enjoy ourselves. We are not doing well, but we have to be realistic. We really wanted to win at the weekend and we are annoyed, but we are trying to talk things through within the squad in order to keep calm and to allow us to focus on this game coming up."
