Osasuna have learned their opponent for the first round of the 2026-2027 Copa del Rey. The draw held on Monday at the Ciudad del Fútbol de Las Rozas paired the Navarrese club with Atlético Calatayud, a team that plays in the Regional Preferente de Aragón, six tiers below La Liga.
The match will be played at the Estadio Municipal de San Íñigo in Calatayud in a single-leg tie, with the exact date to be confirmed for either October 27, 28, or 29. The format favours the lower-ranked side, who will therefore play at home. Atlético Calatayud reached this round after eliminating CD Baztan KE with a 4-1 aggregate score.
For Osasuna, who sit 13th in La Liga with eight points, this fixture is a chance to change their momentum following a run of five consecutive defeats in the domestic league. Manager Luis Miguel Ramis and his squad now face the first cup step of the season with the clear aim of progressing.
Osasuna's next league commitment is on November 8 against Athletic Club at El Sadar, a match that precedes the trip to Calatayud. The Aragonese side, who have won their first three league games, will experience one of the most significant matches in their recent history against top-flight opposition.
