After the win against Sevilla at the Santiago Bernabéu, Real Madrid visit a tough scenario tonight: Mestalla. The LaLiga leaders take on Valencia on LaLiga matchday 27. Our team will be looking for their 21st win and to widen the gap between themselves and their rivals in the standings.
Ancelotti's side are on a spectacular unbeaten run in LaLiga. They have gone 20 games unbeaten, with 15 wins and five draws. This great record is due in part to their defensive strength. Madrid continue to hold firm in this area and are the team that has conceded the fewest goals in the competition with just 16 goals against.
"The the most important part of the season comes in March and April and we're very confident," said Carlo Ancelotti in his pre-match press conference ahead of the clash at Mestalla. Bellingham, the team's top scorer with 20 goals, Joselu, Carvajal and Camavinga are all back in the squad.
Valencia
The team coached by Baraja start the matchday in ninth with a record of 10 wins, 6 draws and 9 defeats. They have a game in hand due to the postponed match against Granada because of the tragic fire in Valencia. Our rival will be looking for a win in front of their home crowd to get closer to the European places. Hugo Duro is their top scorer with 10 league goals.
