Form Guide & Team Overview

Valencia

Valencia’s recent form has been a mixed bag, with a draw against Mallorca and a narrow loss to Elche highlighting their struggles. Their last win came against Sevilla, a solid 2-0 victory away from home, but they’ve since failed to capitalise on that momentum. The loss to Real Oviedo was particularly disappointing, leaving them searching for consistency.
Despite these setbacks, Valencia’s ability to grind out results, like the draw against Mallorca, shows they have the resilience to compete. However, their defence will need to tighten up if they hope to secure a positive result against Girona.Valencia’s recent form has been a mixed bag, with a draw against Mallorca and a narrow loss to Elche highlighting their struggles.

Girona
