In the 30th round of La Liga, Real Madrid will host Valencia at the Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid. I recommend placing a bet on the outcome of this match, as it offers a good chance of success.
Match Preview
Carlo Ancelotti’s side heads into this match in strong form, having won their last three league games. During this run, they narrowly defeated Rayo Vallecano and Villarreal (both 2-1), and in their most recent outing, they managed to secure a 3-2 victory over Leganés at home, though they nearly slipped up.
The Whites confidently hold second place in the standings, trailing Barcelona by just three points. However, it’s worth noting that Real has significantly fallen behind in terms of goals scored—20 fewer goals than the Catalan leaders. At home, Real has lost only once in 14 matches, securing 12 victories.
Valencia has been in decent form recently, remaining unbeaten in their last four league matches. During this stretch, they drew away to Osasuna (3-3) and Girona (1-1), and earned home victories over Valladolid (2-1) and Mallorca (1-0).
