Valencia vs Almeria Predictions 23 Ianuarie 2023

• Valencia have won four of their nine home league games
• Almeria have La Liga’s worst away for this season – six defeats from eight games
• Three of Valencia’s nine matches at the Mestalla have seen them keep a clean sheet

Can Valencia kick start their campaign?

Form continues to be poor for Valencia, who have won only one of their last eight in La Liga, but that was a 3-0 demolition of Real Betis at the Mestalla.

Indeed, Gennaro Gattuso’s side have won four of their nine home league fixtures, keeping clean sheets in three of those victories.

They also have a strong record there against Almeria, whom they have beaten in three of their last four clashes at the Mestalla.

Almeria need to improve on the road

That does not bode well for Almeria, who travel to the Mestalla with La Liga’s worst away record, losing six of their eight matches.

They have still netted only four times on the road, while each of their two draws have come against teams currently in the relegation zone.

Indeed, Rubi’s side have failed to score in four of their last seven on their travels in the league, while it’s now just one win in five at all venues after the 1-1 stalemate at home to Atletico Madrid last time out.

I predict that Valencia will win this game to nil, with 1-0 my correct score prediction.
