Valencia and Real Madrid have both been involved in games involving plenty of late drama recently, so fans are unlikely to be leaving this La Liga clash at Mestalla before the final whistle. Real Madrid have won three of the last five H2Hs (D1, L1) and have only lost one of their last four visits here (W2, D1), scoring exactly twice in three of those games. Real Madrid have only trailed one away league game at half-time this term (HT: W5, D5).

Valencia will hope that conceding painfully late to lose 2-1 to both Real Betis in La Liga and Athletic Club in the Copa del Rey in their last two fixtures won’t puncture the momentum they had been building, including a previous three-match unbeaten run in the Spanish top flight (W2, D1). That resurgence helped them end the last matchday just above the relegation zone and Los Che continue to be a tough proposition at home, where their ongoing six-match unbeaten run in the league (W2, D4) is their longest since a sequence of 11 games that ended in March 2024.

Real Madrid struck deep into injury time to beat Rayo Vallecano 2-1 last weekend to complete a sixth consecutive La Liga win and keep the pressure on leaders Barcelona, who they trailed by one point prior to this matchday. Álvaro Arbeloa would become just the sixth Los Blancos manager to win his first four La Liga games in charge with victory here, although he won’t be getting carried away as the last of those was his predecessor Xabi Alonso. Given that they’re unbeaten in away league games since the start of October (W4, D3), the visitors will head to Mestalla in a hopeful mood, and they should also be fresh as they weren’t in action in midweek.

A whopping 21 of the 26 goals in Valencia’s home league games this season came in the second half. Five of Valencia’s last seven home league games produced exactly two goals. Real Madrid have scored exactly twice in five of their last six league fixtures.

Luis Rioja, who was once briefly on Real Madrid’s books, netted in Valencia’s last league game, with two of his three goals this term arriving between the 70th and 85th minutes. Kylian Mbappé has scored five of Real Madrid’s last six competitive goals and he opened the scoring in four of his last five goalscoring outings.

Valencia’s José Copete suffered another injury setback in midweek. Real Madrid’s Jude Bellingham was withdrawn minutes into their victory over Rayo last weekend with a hamstring problem, while Vinícius Júnior is suspended.
