🗞️ Team News: Valencia

Looking at personnel, there is just a single fitness concern for the Valencia manager Carlos Corberán to be concerned with from an otherwise complete group of players. Thierry Correia (Cruciate ligament tear) misses out.

We think that Los Che should opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation for this game, handing starts to Giorgi Mamardashvili, Dimitri Foulquier, Cristhian Mosquera, Cesar Tarrega, Jose Gaya, Enzo Barrenechea, Javier Guerra, Luis Rioja, Andre Almeida, Diego Lopez and Umar Sadiq.

ℹ️ Team News: Mallorca

We are inclined to think that Los Bermellones might make use of a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting the game with Dominik Greif, Pablo Maffeo, Martin Valjent, Antonio Raillo, Johan Mojica, Manu Morlanes, Samu, Takuma Asano, Daniel Rodriguez, Sergi Darder and Abdon Prats.

💭 Prediction

We feel that in this game, Mallorca have the capability to put a goal past this Valencia lineup, however that probably won’t quite prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.

We’re going for a narrow 2-1 victory for Valencia at the end of the match. Let’s just see how this one goes.
