Valencia, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Valencia players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Alaves. Their share of possession in that meeting was 61%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Alaves, who had 7 shots on goal with 1 on target.
Rubén Baraja will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 7 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have had a good run of form at The Estadio de Mestalla recently, unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home games and picking up 3 wins along the way.
Atletico Madrid, Recent FormWhen Atletico Madrid last played in the league they faced Rayo Vallecano and produced an outstanding 7-0 away win. They came away from that fixture with a 44% share of the possession and clocked up 17 attempts on goal with 10 on target, in comparison to Rayo Vallecano, who managed 12 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 17 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss Diego Simeone will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 7 goals in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, and playing away from home, they're currenlty on a run of 2 clean sheets in a row.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 7 games.
Ángel Correa will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Atletico Madrid.
A defeat for Valencia in their last match against Atletico Madrid was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 3 goals.
Los Colchoneros will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 11 encounters with Valencia. On each of the last 2 outings between Valencia and Los Colchoneros in the league, Valencia have not performed well in front of goal and have come up empty-handed in terms of goals. Atletico have an impressive record of scoring goals against Los Che, with a tally of 13 goals against them in their previous 5 encounters.
