H2H: Valladolid vs Huesca – Prediction (La Liga

H2H: Valladolid vs Huesca – Comparison.

Shon Weissman remains the only Valladolid player to have scored in more than one of their last eight LL matches. Meanwhile, Rafa Mir has scored in more LL fixtures (three) than any other Huesca player, including the last meeting with Valladolid. Valladolid’s last four competitive H2H meetings with Huesca have produced 1-0 HT results (HT: W3, L1).

Valladolid Insights.

Valladolid have taken just one win from their last seven La Liga (LL) outings, and can blame some sloppy starts, after failing to score before HT in all but one of those seven matches. Though on the brink of the drop zone, Valladolid are unbeaten (W4, D3) when opening the scoring nonetheless. However, with the HT result holding in just 45% of their LL fixtures across the season, including three HT/FT doubles for Valladolid and three against, first-half action is by no means definitive. That said, they must improve upon their abysmal clean sheet rate of 10% – the second-worst in the league ahead of the round

Huesca Insights.

Rock-bottom and running out of time, Huesca won’t have taken any satisfaction from breaking a run of four consecutive losses, given that they failed to score in their most recent draw. Their current run of four LL fixtures without scoring is the longest of their top flight history, but they’ve defended stoically to eke out 0-0 HT results in each of their last three. The visitors’ profligacy in front of goal is plainly illustrated by a shooting accuracy of just 23.33% in their last three LL matches. In combination with their defensive ways, that has secured final totals of under 2.5 goals in all but one of their last eight LL fixtures.
