The Mestalla stadium was noticeably empty for the visit of Barcelona in the Copa del Rey as Valencia fans stayed away as a result of the club's poor run.

Gary Neville's team are without a league win since November 7 and are yet to win in La Liga under the former Manchester United player, despite four wins in the Copa del Rey.

Valencia gave away a number of free tickets in a bid to fill the Mestalla, but even that approach didn't work as Valencia tried to claw back a 7-0 aggregate deficit from a disastrous first leg that saw Luis Suarez score four time at Camp Nou.

Neville reportedly has one game to save his job, as they host La Liga strugglers on Saturday.
