Leganes vs Valencia
Spanish La Liga.
Date: Sunday, 25th September, 2016
Kick-off: 17:00 GMT+7
Venue: Estadio Municipal de Butarque.
Leganes will come into this match with a bit more confidence, having defeated Deportivo La Coruna, away from home, in mid-week. Garitano’s team sit nicely in mid-table, which is a position they would have taken before the season had started. However, they are yet to win in-front of their own fans and will want to put that record straight in this game.
Valencia, having sacked Ayestaran before the Alaves game, picked up their first win and points of the season. It remains to be seen if this is the start of some good form but there is no denying, Valencia have some good players in their team, which should be higher up the table.
Leganes will see this as an opportunity to get their first home win of the season and Valencia will be arriving with a little more confidence, having picked up their first points of the season on Thursday. However, Leganes are the more consistent of the two teams and this could be enough to see them win their first home match of the season.
