Valladolid Preview
Valladolid has had some problems this season and has so far lost 50% of its 14 games played, with a record of five wins, two draws and seven defeats. In fact, in their most recent La Liga match, they lost 3-0 to Athletic Club and have not recorded consecutive victories since October.
If there is one thing that has worked for them, it is playing at home, where they have achieved their best results, winning four of their five total victories. Their defense has proved to be strong and has allowed only six of the 21 goals conceded at their stadium. In addition, the team registers an undefeated streak of four games playing at home, with three wins and one tie.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Sergio Asenjo, Lucas Rosa, Joaquín Fernández, Javi Sánchez, Sergio Escudero, Roque Mesa, Álvaro Aguado, Ramón Rodríguez, Iván Sánchez, Shon Waissman, Óscar Plano.
Real Madrid Preview
Real Madrid has an important commitment to its fans. The reigning European champions are among the best teams in La Liga, but have not shown absolute dominance and will need to take immediate action if they are to overcome Barcelona. The Merengue has a record of 11 wins, two draws and one loss. Their most recent result was a 2-1 win over Cadiz.
Curiously, the only defeat in 14 games played was away, and it came in their last away game by a score of 3-2 against Rayo Vallecano. Before that loss, they had also lost in their last Champions League match, so they now have two consecutive away losses.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Thibaut Courtois, Daniel Carvajal, Antonio Rüdiger, David Alaba, Ferland Mendy, Dani Ceballos, Toni Kroos, Federico Valverde, Marco Asensio, Karim Benzema, Vinicius Junior.
JefeBet Prediction
Valladolid will try to put an end to Real Madrid’s hegemony over the two sides, as they have not beaten “Los Blancos” since November 2008 and since then there have been 13 matches, with 11 Madrid wins and two draws.
The only point in Valladolid’s favor may be their home advantage, but Los Merengues look like the firm candidates for victory to continue extending their positive streak.
Prediction: Real Madrid win by a score of 2-0.
