VALLADOLID V REAL MADRID PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS AND FACTS

Valladolid are 7^th in la liga with 21 points from 14 games, winning 6, drawing 3 and losing 5.  They have scored 1.43 goals per game while conceding 1.07 for a total goal difference of +5.  Their recent form has seen 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in their last 5 matches with an aggregate score of 6-4.  2 of the 5 games ended with over 2.5 goals.

Real Madrid are 3^rd in the table with 29 points from 14 games, having won 9, drawn 2 and lost 3.  They have scored 2.43 goals per game while conceding 0.71 for a total goal difference of +24.  Their recent form has seen 4 wins and 1 loss with an aggregate score of 13-3.  3 of the 5 games ended with over 2.5 goals.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Valladolid have exceeded all expectations this season after their promotion from Segunda last year.  Their main goal was simply to avoid relegation and already they are well clear of the fight at the bottom.  They are unlikely to be able to hold this type of position through the season but the more points they can get now, the less likely they will fall into a panic when they begin to drop points.

Madrid are 11 points behind leaders Barcelona and the league is as good as over.  They took a step to claiming second place last week though, with a 2-0 win over Atletico who are now just 5 points ahead.  You’d expect Madrid to be able to make up that points difference but to get close to Barcelona will be too much.

Madrid still has some injury worries with Higuain, Albiol, Marcelo and Essien missing.  They are able to easily replace these players with others of a similar quality for one off games but they miss the squad rotation these players provide which keeps the team fresh.

The deficit in the league may change Madrid’s focus this year where they go allout for the Champions League, a title they have not won for 11 years.  For a team of their stature, not even reaching a final in over 10 years isn’t good enough.

VALLADOLID V REAL MADRID PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

Madrid are huge favourites even as the away side and they have the quality to easily brush aside this Valladolid side.  They have slipped up a few times this season against sides they should easily beat but 3 straight wins in all competitions with an aggregate score of 9-1 shows they are in some strong form.

I’ll be backing a Real Madrid win at 1.29 with bet365.

VALLADOLID - REAL MADRID PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

If you want some higher odds on Madrid then you’ll find them in the Asian Handicap market.  Backing Madrid -1.5 means they need to win by 2 or more goals for your bet to win.  If we look at Madrid’s last 5 wins in all competitions, we can see one by a single goal and 4 by 2 or more goals.

I’ll be backing Madrid -1.5 at 1.82 with Ladbrokes.

VALLADOLID - REAL MADRID PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GOALS PREVIEW

Valladolid has seen an average of 2.0 goals per game over their last 5 matches while Madrid has seen an average of 3.2 per match over their last 5.  Every match that Madrid are involved in has over 2.5 goals as a huge favourite but they have gone under their last two la liga matches.

I’m going to go against the favourite here and back Under 2.5 Goals at 2.85 with Betsson.
