Valencia host Real Madrid for their Matchday 17 clash in fine form and looking to challenge for a top 4 spot with important home points on Sunday, coming into the match on the back of a three-match winning streak and just days after snatching a ticket to the Champions League knockout stages with a 0-1 win at Ajax.
Los Che beat Villarreal (2-1) and Levante (2-4) beforehand and kept scoring numbers of goals on the regular, despite obvious struggles to retain consistency which see them sitting eight points behind the joint pace-setters. They have been very tough to beat here and will now have high hopes to show off as such an outfit once again.
Real Madrid have, on the other hand, beaten Club Brugge (1-3) as Zinedine Zidane rested some of his starting lineup with a Champions League Group A top 2 spot already in the bag. They extended a ten-match unbeaten streak across competitions with eight wins and just two draws interrupting it, held off by both Betis (0-0) and PSG (2-2) at home ground.
Los Blancos have been in great shape up front despite struggles with injuries and we’ve seen them bag nine goals in their last three trips, beating Eibar (0-4) and Alaves (1-2) ahead of the trip to Belgium. Still, Mestalla Stadium should prove a tougher fort to break down and we now hope for a very narrow occasion in the making.
We’re thus sticking our necks out for Valencia to hold off Real Madrid on Sunday evening, going for the fourth draw in the sides’ ten head-to-head clashes at 29/10 with BetVictor as it shapes to be more than just a lively longshot at this point.
Indeed, Real Madrid come off as favourites to snatch the points but they’ve been conceding goals on the regular and this could open chances for Valencia to make this a thriller. We thus hope for goals and we’re also backing a Yes on Both teams to score, which comes at 8/15 with William Hill.
