Real Valladolid vs Real Madrid Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Pucelanos will take on Los Blancos on matchday 21 in the LaLiga.

Real Madrid will travel to Jose Zorrilla to take on relegation-placed Real Valladolid on Saturday. Overall Real Valladolid are in very poor form and are not able to take the heat of LaLiga. Even though they will be playing at home but facing the defending champions will not be an easy task for them.

In 20 games, they have won four, drawn three and lost 13 games till now. Already they are low on confidence and now facing Los Blancos will surely make things more complicated for the home side.

After Real Madrid got trashed by their rivals FC Barcelona in the Super Cup final by 2-5, they have shown a good response and won three consecutive matches. They are at the top of the table and will look to get all three points away from home. Unlike their rivals, the Los Blancos have not dropped points this season a lot.

Surely Valladolid with their low block can create trouble for the away team but Los Blancos have enough quality to upset the home team. This will be an exciting fixture for sure.

Players to Watch

Mario Martin (Real Valladolid)

He plays a key role in the buildup phase to get the ball into more advanced areas. His precision in passing helps him to exploit the spaces very well and with his through balls, Martin is easily able to break the opposition defence. Martin controls the tempo of the game very well and he is able to run the Valladolid midfield smoothly.

Mario is also great at winning duels and does not shy away from making well-timed tackles. His performance will be crucial for Valladolid’s midfield. In 17 games, he has failed to score any goal and provided one assist.

Brahim Diaz (Real Madrid)

He is a number 10 and can play as a wide creative player. The Spanish playmaker has a direct approach while making progressive runs. Despite being short in stature he is able to shrug off challenges and create a lot of trouble for the opponent team.

He is an extremely positive player who always wants to make something happen. His positive and aggressive attitude on the ball can lead to spectacular results when everything comes together. Diaz is good on both feet and can beat opponents in both directions. In 15 games, he has scored three goals and provided two assists.

First thing Brahim Diaz did after scoring is apologize to the fans for missing the chance earlier.What a character! pic.twitter.com/cHQaBrD0GF
