It seems that Real Valladolid, who lost 0-2 to Cadiz last Friday, has fewer chances. This defeat left them in the relegation zone ahead of this round. Coach Paulo Pecolano stated that he wants his team “to be prepared for what is coming and look ahead,” as it becomes increasingly likely that the final match of the season against Getafe, whom they defeated earlier in the season, could determine their fate. Five consecutive defeats have nullified all the positive moments that were achieved after seven points in three April matches raised hopes of climbing out of this difficult situation. In the current season’s 35 rounds, Valladolid has ten wins and five draws, totaling 35 points and placing them in 18th position in the standings. Today, Amalla, Anuar, and Perez will be unable to participate in the match, with Perez suffering from a muscle injury.
The hosts will try once again to spoil the mood of the new Spanish champions after Barcelona suffered their first defeat at Camp Nou to Real Sociedad in a La Liga match since 1991. Barcelona boss Xavi found no reason to be unhappy with his players after they had been “celebrating almost the entire week.” Instead, he declared that the club’s 27th victory in the top division was something they would “build on” going forward. Fans wouldn’t want the hangover to last another week and break another long-standing record – Barcelona hasn’t lost in head-to-head matches since March 2014 when Xavi was still on the field for the losing team. Nonetheless, the champions have recorded 27 wins and four draws, totaling 85 points and securing the top position in the league table. Today, Pedri, Araujo, and Alarcon will remain sidelined, with Alarcon suffering from a muscle injury. More today football predictions from the experts can be obtained from the link provided.
