VAL Vs SEV Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Valencia rake up their third draw on the spin after a gusty showing against Barcelona.
Although they are currently unbeaten in their last three matches, Valencia will be far from happy with those results. All three of those matches have curtailed in draws to leave Valencia just the solitary point above the relegation zone.
Sitting in 13th place, for Valencia, a complete inability to bulk up its backline has proved to be extremely costly. Despite stringing together some solid attacking showings, the club has been sold down a river by a backline which has relegated the club to picking up the pieces.
What will instil some kind of confidence in the club’s ranks in this moment of peril is their 2-2 draw against Barcelona the last time around. It was a performance laden to the brim with fight and character, one which could end up being the defining moment of their season.
VAL Vs SEV Fantasy Probable Winner
Much like Valencia, Sevilla haven’t quite seen the wind sway in their favour either this season. The club has been sluggish this season but we envision them just about scramming their way to a win courtesy of their defence.
