Real Madrid vs Valencia – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Spanish champions Real Madrid face a resurgent Valencia team in La Liga this afternoon.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side can move level on points with Barcelona with a win, ahead of the latter’s fixture with Real Betis later in the day.

Real earned progress to the Copa del Rey final in midweek in a thrilling tie against Real Sociedad. Antonio Rudiger’s extra-time header made it 4-4 on the night and sealed a 5-4 aggregate success for Los Blancos. The dream of a treble remains alive for Real Madrid.

Valencia are battling against relegation but have climbed four points clear of trouble under Carlos Corberan. Los Che have taken eight points from their last four fixtures to rise to 15th in the table.
