Valencia vs Granada
Spanish La Liga 2016/17
Date: Sunday, 20th November 2016,
Kick-Off at 15:15 UK
Venue: Mestalla, Valencia.
These two struggling sides could both do with a win this weekend, but for different reasons. Valencia are a side synonymous with European football over the last two decades, but the last couple of season have been forgetful to say the least and after losing key players over the summer, its been another poor season for tomorrows hosts. Granada provide the opposition this weekend, still yet to earn their first league win of the campaign and sitting rock bottom with just 4 points from their opening 11 games. I don’t think anyone will be surprised to learn that SkyBet make Valencia favourites to win tomorrow, offering just 4/11 for the home win, 4/1 on the draw, and 7/1 for Granada to pick up a desperately needed victory. It is hard to argue with those odds, but for me Valencia have not been good enough this season to earn such strong odds in their favour. If Granada are to win their first game of the season anytime soon then it could come against a side like Valencia who appear to be a shadow of their former selves.

Being a Granada fan in games like this is the easiest way to a heart attack, considering their poor previous record. Valencia have a clean record against Granada in their previous 12 games. They have won 11 games against Granada and drawn just once, losing none.
Also, Valencia have an excellent record at home against Granada with 6 wins in their 6 home games. Furthermore, Valencia have conceded just one goal to Granada at home, while they have scored 13 goals.
Valencia vs Granada: Prediction
Valencia are no doubt the better team among the two teams, despite their poor start this season. They have managed to stay out of the drop zone and a win in this game will keep them out of the zone.
This could be the game that will awaken Valencia’s season and we expect a huge win from them in this game.
