As they prepare for the new Segunda División season, Real Valladolid will likely aim to tighten their defense while maintaining their goal-scoring threat.

Recent home/away form

Real Valladolid

Real Valladolid's recent home form shows a solid defensive record with impressive resilience. In their last six home games, they remained unbeaten, securing three wins and three draws. Their defensive prowess is highlighted by four clean sheets and conceding only 0.5 goals per game. While their attacking output averages just one goal per game, it has been sufficient to maintain their unbeaten streak. The majority of their matches (83%) have been low-scoring affairs with under 2.5 goals. However, their most recent Segunda División match against Villarreal II broke this trend, resulting in a high-scoring 3-2 victory. This game stands out as an anomaly in their otherwise defensively-oriented performances at home.

RCD Espanyol

RCD Espanyol's recent away form shows a mixed performance with a notable struggle in scoring goals. The team has managed only one win in their last six away matches, accompanied by three draws and two losses. Their defensive record is somewhat promising, with three clean sheets in these six games. However, their goal-scoring ability is a concern, averaging just 0.67 goals per game. The matches tend to be low-scoring affairs, with 67% of the games ending with under 2.5 goals. Interestingly, there's a pattern of consecutive draws in their recent fixtures, with three straight 0-0 or 2-2 results before their win against Sporting Gijon. The team's last away victory came in the Segunda División against Sporting Gijon, breaking a series of draws, but they've since failed to maintain that momentum, losing their subsequent two away matches.
