Valencia have made a solid start to the new season, and they will be looking to continue their fine form this Saturday when they come up against Almeria. The visitors are still searching for their first league win of the season.
It has been a reliable start to the new season for Valencia, as they look to put a difficult campaign last term behind them. The Spanish giants currently sit fifth in the standings, as they have won three of their opening five matches. A victory this weekend could see them end the round in the top four spots in the league standings.
Valencia bounced back to winning ways last weekend, as they ended a two-game losing run with maximum points at home against Atletico Madrid. It was one of their best performances in recent seasons, as Atletico had no answer for the vibrant attacking play boasted by Valencia. Hugo Duro was in excellent form for the hosts in that fixture, as he scored twice inside the opening 35 minutes. The victory was secured ten minutes into the second half following Javi Guerra’s effort.
It has been a damning start to the season for Almeria, as they currently sit bottom of the La Liga standings after picking up just one point from their opening five matches. They are one of two teams in the Spanish top-flight that are yet to record a victory this season.
Almeria suffered a second straight defeat when they were in action last weekend, as they were edged out by Villarreal on the road. The visitors may have believed that they had done enough to pick up a point, but Villarreal stole the victory after scoring the winning goal in the fourth minute of injury time.
Almeria landed a victory in this exact fixture last season, as they landed a 2-1 home win in April. The hosts this weekend avoided defeat in both matches against Valencia last season, with the first clash ending in a 2-2 draw. However, Valencia have won two of the previous five meetings between the sides.
It has been a very progressive start to the season for Valencia, and that offers the team hope ahead of the remaining months of the season. We expect them to have too much for the hosts this weekend, and we could see the visitors picking up a 2-0 win.
