Real Madrid vs Valladolid Prediction: 25/8/2024

Although Real Madrid has seen some improvement recently, their struggle at home is evident, with only two wins in their last 10 top-flight matches and five losses. This underwhelming performance has contributed to their current challenging position. In contrast, Valladolid, who are chasing the title, have been in strong form, winning four of their last five away games.

Interestingly, the last 12 home games for Real Madrid in La Liga have all featured three or fewer goals, indicating a pattern of low-scoring matches. Similarly, Valladolid’s recent away games have followed suit, with each of their last 10 matches also producing under 3.5 goals.

Valladolid has not only been successful on the road but has also provided plenty of entertainment, with 10 of their last 14 away matches seeing goals at both ends. Real Madrid’s home games have shown a similar trend, with both teams scoring in six of their last nine matches, suggesting a competitive encounter is on the cards.

 

Prediction

Given that four of Real Madrid’s last five home games have seen fewer than 3.5 goals, and 19 of Valladolid’s last 20 away matches have also been low-scoring affairs, it seems likely that this pattern will continue when these teams meet.

Expected Score: Real Madrid 1 : 1 Valladolid
