On Monday evening, Valencia will welcome Real Oviedo at Estadio de Mestalla in Valencia in the seventh round of La Liga. The hosts hope to extend their unbeaten home streak to four, while the visitors wish to win their first points away from home.
Let's break down the match and find the best possible bet for this La Liga tie.
H2H stats
These teams haven't met in a very long time. The last time they met was in 2001 when they drew 0:0. Looking further back, Real Oviedo haven't won in the previous nine H2H games. Meanwhile, Valencia won four of those, with five other games ending as draws.
In that nine-game stretch, we saw three or more goals four times (44%), while both teams scored in the same number of games.
Valencia team overview
Valencia has been a mid-table team for the past six seasons, constantly finishing between 9th and 14th. The popular Bats continued with similar performances this year, sitting in 11th place with eight points after six rounds. Still, at home, they were fantastic and will look for another good home performance against newly promoted Real Ovideo.
After a 2:2 draw with Espanyol, coach Calos Corberan spoke to the media. He said they were close to winning all three points, but allowed a goal in the stoppage time. The coach acknowledged they were better in the first half when they overcame Espanyol's pressure and were aggressive defensively. However, he admitted that at times they played too high, which left them vulnerable in defense.

Real Oviedo team overview
Real Oviedo managed to return to the Spanish top-flight division after 24 years and spent the last ten years in La Liga 2. Their goal is only to survive somehow, but they haven't started the season very well. After six rounds, they have won only three points and sit in 18th place.
For this game against Valencia, four players who missed the previous games due to injuries should remain sidelined - David Costas, Oviemuno Ejaria, Alvaro Lemos, and Nacho Vidal. Meanwhile, Federico Vinas served his two-game suspension and will be available for the Valencia game.

Prediction
Valencia are doing pretty well this season. However, most of their good games happened at home, where they won seven out of eight points (87.5%). At Estadio de Mestalla, the Bats had two excellent wins over Getafe (3:0) and Athletic Bilbao (2:0). Even a 1:1 vs Real Sociedad was outstanding, as they were much closer to winning. Just with a little more luck, we could speak about a home three-game winning streak.
Meanwhile, Real Oviedo lost five out of six games - 83%. Their only points came at home against Real Sociedad when they won 1:0 in a match where Sociedad were a lot better. On the road, they lost three out of three games and haven't scored a goal vs Elche, Getafe, and Villarreal!
Considering what we have seen from these teams this year, and especially Valencia's home and Real Oviedo's road performances, we firmly believe the Bats are much closer to winning the upcoming La Liga tie.
3 Reasons why Valencia should win
- Valencia won seven points in the first three home games
- Real Ovideo lost five out of six La Liga games
- Real Ovideo haven't scored away from home
