Battles

The battles round was broadcast on 29 October. The coaches divide their contestants into four groups of three or four artists, depending on their music style. They perform a selected song by their respective coach together, and each coach decides how many, or even if any one of them advances in the competition. Coaches receive help from their advisors: María José Llergo for Team Alborán, Beret for Team Malú, Greeicy for Team Alejandro and David Bisbal for Team Fonsi. Out of 14 contestants, only seven contestants per team advance to the Knockouts.
