Last week, Valencia notched only their fourth victory of the current La Liga season by a close margin. While playing at home, the team took on Celta and won 2-1 which meant that Valencia now had two home victories in a row. However, these tender moments were eclipsed by the crushing away defeat 1-7 to Barcelona which happened in between these successes.
Also, Valencia were on the receiving end of very humiliating cup match loss to Barcelona, where they succumbed 0-5. With some of the successes here and there, the team is still in the bottom three of the league. Still, the good news is that the 17th place team is now only 4 points ahead which gives Valencia some minimal incentive to possibly make that turn around.
On the other hand, Leganés is only two points above the relegation zone meaning they have a perilous fall waiting to happen. Over the last nine league matches, Leganés has only managed to win two with three draws and four defeats sprinkled in between.
Out of these, the highlight has to be their shocking 1-0 wins against Barcelona and Atletico. From their last set of games, the last round round saw Leganés suffering a home defeat 0-1 against Rayo Vallecano. Curiously, Leganés away form is quite pragmatic with solid defending. In six of their last eight matches played away, they did not lose, drawing five and winning one.
