Struggling to keep their wits about them, Sunrisers Hyderabad have been vacillating in terms of performances and results. With a decent return of six points from eight games, SRH occupy fifth-place on the standings. SRH were brought down to bare bones on the last matchday against CSK, the latter emerging victorious by 20 runs. Their batting lineup failed to hit their high marks in that fixture. Though Warner and Jonny Bairstow began the game brightly, Manish Pandeys performances were questionable. In truth, the player has been disappointing in the last few games. However, Kane Williamson is currently on a stupendous run of form, helping to cover for the inconsistent Pandey. Their bowling unit is in shambles with injuries to many key players. Now, the onus is on Sandeep Sharma to shine this weekend.
Valencia, like Villarreal, lacks stability. This is best seen against the background of the 2 extreme rounds. First, the away team beats Real Sociedad (0:1) and a week later, already at home, the defeat to Betis is recorded (0:2). In general, Los Sanchez have played 2 matches on foreign fields this season and they have not managed to win once, having one defeat. In general, all results of Xavi Gracia’s charges look like this: 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. The difference between goals scored and conceded is 6 and 7, respectively. The team is in 8th position in the table. The gap between the Champions League zone is only 1 point. In fact, the trips for Valencia in Primera are a very sad story. For the 21st last meeting, only 4 victories were fixed, with 4 draws and 14 defeats. Now about those players who will not be able to help their partners. In this context, only Elyakim Mangal can be noted.
