If Atletico Madrid is in third place on the table, Valencia is fourth from the bottom, right above the group holding the red light. It is worth mentioning that Los Che is just ahead of the team right behind Getafe in terms of sub-stats.
After 25 rounds, Valencia received 15 defeats. Away from home, they have lost all of the last 6 matches, including against opponents competing for relegation like Girona or Getafe. With such baggage, it wouldn't be surprising if "The Bats" were shot down at the Metropolitano.
