Real Valladolid will be hoping to mark their return to La Liga with a win when they host Espanyol on Monday night.
The 2023-24 campaign was largely a success for the hosts as they achieved their main objective. Paulo Pezzolano's side finished second in the Segunda Division, just two points behind champions Legales, and secured their return to the top flight. One thing that will worry them and their supporters is that they have not fared well in LaLiga in recent years. In fact, the White and Violets have not played in consecutive league campaigns since the 2020-21 season.
Espanyol are also new to the Spanish top flight. A fourth-place finish in the Segunda Division at the end of the season earned Blanquiazules a place in the promotion play-offs and they made the most of their opportunity, beating Oviedo 2-1 in the final.
Real Valladolid vs Espanyol Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
While entertainment was the major headline during Real Valladolid’s preseason, with all the White and Violets scoring an average of two games a game in their four fixtures and two ended with three or more goals, I don’t fancy many goals on Monday.
Espanyol relied mainly on their stingy defence towards the end of last season and we saw similar displays in Preseason. The visitors kept a clean sheet in five of their last six competitive matches and only conceded to goals in four preseason matches.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
