The last time Real Madrid travelled to Mestalla in La Liga in 2025, the score finished 1-2 in what was a scrappy late win for a 10-man Real Madrid side. This time, a high-flying Madrid side travels there again, only this time, to face a Valencia side battling near the relegation zone.

It's La Liga action on Sunday, February 8, as Real Madrid travel to Mestalla to face a Valencia side mired in a poor league position. Madrid boss Alvaro Arbeloa will be aiming to extend his side's winning streak.

 

📈Team Form📉

 

⚪Valencia: In 16th position with 23 points from 22 matches.

🔵 Real Madrid: Second in the La Liga table, one point behind the leaders.

 

📊Key Stats & Head-to-Head 📊

 

🔥 Real Madrid are on a six-match winning run in La Liga.

🔬 What to Expect From Both Teams 🔥

 

⚪Valencia | Form: D🟡L🔴D🟡W🟢W🟢L🔴:

 

Despite being just one point outside the relegation zone, Carlos Corberan's side can take heart from winning two of their last three league matches.

However, they have been knocked out of the Copa del Rey, and with pressure mounting, they will have to start getting positive results soon. They will welcome a Madrid side they beat at home just two seasons ago.

 

🔵Real Madrid | Form: W🟢W🟢W🟢W🟢W🟢W🟢:

 

Alvaro Arbeloa's side extended their winning run with a 2-1 victory over Rayo Vallecano, making it six straight league wins.

They boast a formidable away record and will look to repeat their 4-0 victory from the reverse fixture against a Valencia side that will be fighting for their lives and have memories of a home win against Los Blancos in mind.

 

👥 Predicted Lineups 👥

 

⚪Valencia (possible):

Dimitrievski, Foulquier, Comert, Copete, Gaya, Rioja, Urginic, Pepelu, Danjuma, Beltran, Duro.

 

🔵Real Madrid (possible):

Courtois, Alexander-Arnold, Asencio, Huijsen, Carreras, Valverde, Tchouameni, Camavinga, Mastantuono, Mbappé, Brahim.

 

🔥 Matchups & Players to Watch 👀

 

✨ Hugo Duro — The former Real Madrid striker has netted seven times in La Liga this season for Valencia.

✨ Mbappe — Top scorer in the league will look to add to his goal tally and help his side get a victory at a ground that always proves difficult for Real Madrid.

✨ Franco Mastantuono — May be in line for a spot in the attack for Madrid, with Rodrygo a doubt.

✨ Jose Gaya — The experienced left-back will be key for Valencia's defence against a potent attack.
