Valencia seem to have stopped the rot and just in time. Their truly horrendous injury problems are slowly clearing up and despite still being without 7 squad members, most of their "superstars" are now available.
They are very strong at the Mestalla, where they boast a 5-1-1 record this season, that loss to Real Madrid being the only one they have suffered in over a year.
Today Mallorca are the visitors and they travel more in hope, than expectation. Having lost on 7 of their last 8 visits, by 2 or more goals, on 5 occasions.
After starting the season with an impressive defensive record, the islanders have conceded at the alarming rate of 13 in their last 5 starts.
The hosts need this win to stay in the hunt for a Champions League place and know that after the Winter break, they start with 3/4 games away from their beloved home.
Valencia all the way for me and I expect them to put on a bit of a show.
5 points Valencia -1/2 ball 1.43 betfair.
