Valencia take on the visitors Betis in the round 36 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Tuesday, May 10th at Mestalla (Valencia).
Valencia have been very close to being successful this season as they lost in the final of the Copa del Rey, against just Betis precisely in penalties shoutout. But it was clear that by the spring all the forces and thoughts were focused precisely on the cup, where it was possible to take the title and guarantee a place in the next Europa League draw. After the appointment of Pepe Bordalas, who made a name for himself at Getafe, as head coach, it turned out to be a good start to the new championship. There were expectations that the bats would compete for a place in the European Cup through LaLiga. But the priority was the Copa, in which it turned out to break into the final.

The team in 2020 was entrusted to Manuel Pellegrini. The Chilean immediately showed how good he is when he works with ambitious middle peasants, especially in La Liga, where he feels extremely confident. On the move, Engineer brought his new wards to the European Cup. In the Europa League, however, having left the group and knocked out Zenit, the Spaniards offensively and dramatically lost in the 1/8 finals to Eintracht. But still, they managed to take the title in the form of a cup - in their native Seville, on April 23, the “cucumbers” exchanged goals during playing time (Iglesias quickly opened the scoring, but Duro answered with his ball at the end of half an hour), showed themselves a little more calmly when punching a penalty.
Prior to the mentioned cup final, Valencia had only 1 win in 5 head-to-head matches. In this segment, Betis managed to win three times. Valencia are left without a leading lateral, Gaia. Betis can't bring back Montoya and Camaras. Valencia will try to at least partially avenge their recent defeat in the cup but we recommend to expect small number of scored goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored.
