Real Valladolid vs Getafe

Free

Today’s featured game is the Primera Liga game between Real Valladolid and Getafe. Both sides need three points from this game for their respective aims so we should see one of the better games in the Primera Liga between these two sides today.

Real Valladolid looked doomed a few weeks back but the introduction of experienced Javier Clemente to the helm has inspired the hosts back to their difficult, battling selves. A lot of people have forgotten how good Real Valladolid can be in terms of stopping sides playing and taking their chances, which is always a dangerous thing in my opinion. Real Valladolid are two points away from clearing the relegation zone and have just four games remaining so every game is a “must win” for them now. They’re on a good momentum burst, unbeaten in four games and even winning twice along the way. Various aspects of their football have impressed me a lot lately – the determination shown to take the game to their opponents, their cast-iron defence which has conceded just once during those four games, the incisive manner that they’re using to take their chances. Basically, an in-form Valladolid is a very tenacious and difficult opponent and I don’t think anyone’s remembered that nearly well enough, in my opinion. It’s true that Valladolid haven’t had a good season but understimating them is beyond foolish and Getafe know it, having never scored at this ground in the Primera Liga against Real Valladolid.

Visitors Getafe are starting to play well and even have an outside chance of claiming a European place for next season. There’s no way that they’ll make this game easy for Valladolid, particularly with three wins in their past four games to boost their momentum, but their away form in itself should serve as sufficient motivation for the home side to fancy their chances tonight. Getafe have already lost ten out of seventeen away games this season and average conceding approximately 1.5 goals per game on the road, which naturally hinders them. They do manage to score quite a lot of goals on the road too but something happens to them when playing away from Madrid and they tend to look a shadow of their usual selves. This was evident in their last away match as they were beaten 3-2 at Tenerife. Tenerife are battling relegation but the only side that they’ve scored more against at home this season was Espanyol in a 4-1 drubbing with tonight’s hosts Getafe bafflingly losing 3-2. Getafe simply aren’t good enough defensively and although their momentum will make them give Valladolid a good game tonight, it’s hard to see them tearing into a very assured and confident Valladolid side without great labour.

I expect a close game between these two sides but I can only side with an extremely impressive Real Valladolid under a wily and experience Javier Clemente. They’re not conceding goals and they’re taking their chances and with relegation their motivation, the hosts will be more than up for this game. Getafe are fighting for a European place but if you’d have given them this league placing at the start of the season then they’d have taken it so I don’t expect them to burst a blood vessel tonight. Ultimately, I fancy a driven and strong Real Valladolid to do the job against Getafe at very generous but risky odds of 7/5.

Verdict: Real Valladolid to win at 7/5.

Saturday’s Picks

My tips:

As ever, below are my recommended value tips for today in no particular order:

Lechia Gdansk vs Piast Gliwice – beware!

Allegedly this is a fixed game and most bookies have pulled this. Lechia are safe with nothing to play for and Piast need points. If you’re brave enough to test your “luck” with this game then take X2 with low stakes. Lechia have been playing too well of late to lose this game “legally” so beware!

Atletico Nacional de Medellin vs Deportivo Pereira – home win at 3/4.

Atletico Nacional are beginning to make me eat my words! I favour them in Colombia over any other side, I can’t deny that, but a few weeks ago I said that they’d lost their spark and were not one of the top sides anymore. Whereas I stand by that point, they’ve seemingly read this blog decided to pull together and make themselves hard to play against in the Primera A. Indeed, they’re now won their last three home games in Primera A consecutively, scoring an impressive eight times along the way. Atletico tend to struggle on the road but to their credit, they’ve scored in all of their last five Primera A games at home or away so they’re finding the net, which is pleasing and also dangerous for opponents. Atletico can’t defend for shit and are riding the momentum wave but we all know how useful that can be in betting so I’m siding with the hosts tonight, particularly with five wins in seven home games already this season.

Visitors Deportivo Pereira are having a disappointing season and find themselves a lot closer to the bottom of Primera A than they’d like. They’re not nearly as composed as they need to be, drawing far too many games and not winning enough. They don’t score lots or concede excessively but their tally on both fronts tends to leave them without wins more often than with them. They’ve lost three out of seven on the road this season but have seldom looked more likely to lose again due to a lack of momentum following three defeats in their last five Primera A games, drawing twice along the way. Deportivo have lost their last three away games consecutively in Primera A and they’ve looked demoralised of late as a result of it. I personally feel that they’re looking more towards a potential shot at the Copa Colombia this season so the may even rest players tonight if they view it importantly enough.

Deportivo have lost three out of their last five visits here in all competitions and they look likely to do so again tonight. Although the odds are a bit shorter than I’d like them to be, there should still be value in the home win tonight.

Verdict: Atletico Nacional de Medellin to win at 3/4.

Paksi SE vs Gyori ETO FC – away win at 5/4.

I won’t often go against Paksi SE at home but they’re been so poor of late that I have no choice but to do so, particularly at such generous odds. Paksi have dropped like a stone since returning from the winter break and are now even facing the possible threat of relegation. Paksi have failed to win any of their nine Soproni Liga games since returning fom the winter break and have lost their last five games consecutively so morale is an all-time low this season. They’re still scoring goals but are defending so badly that all of their opponents are beating them. They’ve lost four out of their last five home games in the Soproni Liga with only fellow relegation battlers Vasas Budapest failing to win here. Concerningly for Paksi, they’ve conceded two goals in each of their five home games in the Soproni Liga which is an excessive and extremely damaging defensive record which leads Paksi to fear for their Soproni Liga status and indeed they should – nobody will be granting them favours anytime soon and they’ve got no momentum to drag themselves out of this mess so they’re in real trouble currently.

Visitors Gyori ETO FC are one of the hardest sides in the division to beat but they tend to find themselves drawing far more games than they should be. They’re one of the top four sides in Hungary, in my opinion, but a lack of goalscoring potency leaves them somewhat barren at times. They’re strong in defence as their away record indicates with just seven goals conceded in twelve away games. They’ve won five out of their twelve away games in the Soproni Liga but have only lost three times so they’re generally a tough nut to crack. They’re unbeaten since returning from the winter break and bring strong momentum into this game as a result.

Gyori’s win last match has boosted their momentum and they should have enough to do the damage today. Paksi are defending badly enough at home to concede a lot of goals against a goal-shy Gyori side but will struggle to get past their strong defence so I feel that 5/4 on the away could and should be good value today.

Verdict: Gyori ETO FC to win at 5/4.

Szombathelyi Haladas vs Lombard Papa – home win at 10/11.

Haladas have shown a real determination to push away from the drop zone in the second half of their campaign and they’ve done so, already ten points clear of Nyiregyhaza Spartacus. They’re on a great burst of momentum with three wins in their past four games and are much stronger than their league placing indicates, something I think the bookies have underestimated today. They’ve won two out of their last three home games in the Soproni Liga since returning from the winter break with only giants Debreceni VSC able to take points off them along the way. Haladas have scored eight goals in their last four games, which is an average of two goals scored per game, so Haladas certainly have the bit between their teeth currently and it’ll take a braver man than me to go against this awakening dragon!

Visitors Lombard Papa caused a stir when gaining promotion to the Soproni Liga by being very hard to beat. However, since returning from the winter break, they’ve been given an almighty “welcome to the Soproni Liga” with just one win in nine games, conceding particularly heavily of late with ten goals conceded in four games. They’ve lost heavily against Budapest Honved and Diosgyori VTK of late in a fashion that is not what I’d expect from a resilient side like Papa. They’re gradually slipping down the table and are looking a tad demoralised as a result. Papa don’t lose many on the road but their current form and lack of defensive ability leaves them looking very prone ahead of this game today so I think they may just find themselves on the receiving end of a beating today -and not for the first time!

Haladas are playing very well and scoring for fun whereas Papa are conceding heavily and looking demoralised so the home win at 10/11 looks good value to me, particularly with bookies tending to call odds of 4/6 or 8/11 on games like this in the Soproni Liga generally! Haladas are a lot better than people seem to remember so I expect them to do the job today.

Verdict: Szombathelyi Haladas to win at 10/11.

Crotone vs Triestina – home win at 10/11.

Crotone have done remarkably well since gaining promotion from Serie C last season and even stand a chance of making the play-offs to gain promotion to Serie A next season, which I expect to be their motivation today. They’ve only lost three times at home whilst winning nine times in eighteen home games in Serie B so they’re a force at home. They average scoring approximately 1.5 goals per home game and boast one of the best defensive records in the division so they’re a tough side to face, generally speaking. They’ve won three out of their last four games so momentum and confidence are good at the moment and they’ve got five games remaining to stand a chance of making the play-offs so they need to continue winning to stand a chance of completing their previously far-fetched dream.

Visitors Triestina are notoriously poor on the road as ten defeats in eighteen away games this season indicates all too clearly, as well as the fact that they’ve only won twice on the road during that run. They concede approximately 1.5 goals per away game on average and look set to increase that poor record with dismal performances of late granting them four defeats and one draw in their past five games. Triestina are demoralised and worst of all aren’t scoring goals with a tally of just one goal in their past five games. They’re not conceding many goals but every goal conceded at the moment is turning out to be fatal because they’re not scoring goals and this couldn’t have happened at a worse time with relegation just around the corner. Triestina simply cannot afford to sit back and try to soak up pressure here – they must attack and if they do they’ll be hideously exposed by an incisive Crotone and are unlikely to score due to impotence up front.

My only concern here is that the draw looked unusually short when the odds initially came out but odds appear to have had parity restored so this game should end in a home win at decent odds for a calm, composed, and in-form Crotone.

Verdict: Crotone to win at 10/11.

Kashima Antlers vs Gamba Osaka – home win at 4/5.

There’s not a lot between these two sides other than that hosts Kashima have started their campaign better. They’ve won five out of their six home games in all competitions this season with the other game being a draw so the hosts have made a steady and assured start to both their Champions League campaign and their J-League campaign. They’re not peaking yet but I’d be concerned if they were, to be honest. Kashima are one of the top dogs in the division and they consistently show it with efficient displays, particularly at home, so I like the odds on them to win this one today.

Gamba made a slow start to their season but are starting to awaken, which is always dangerous. They don’t score or concede many goals as a rule but they’re going to have to score quite a few to match a dangerous Kashima side today, in my opinion. Gamba have gathered a fair bit of momentum lately with no defeats (including two wins) in their past three games so do approach this game with caution. However, Gamba are nowhere near their best and I genuinely don’t believe they’re good enough to match Kashima at the present time so I think they’ll stutter today.

Kashima have edged past Gamba lately in the head-to-head meetings with no defeats in the last four J-League games between these two sides, winning the last two consecutively. Kashima have won two out of their last three home games against Gamba and have more going for them ahead of today’s game so I feel that there’s value on Kashima to win this clash of the titans at decent odds of 4/5.

Verdict: Kashima Antlers to win at 4/5.

Sanfrecce Hiroshima vs Tokyo – home win at evens.

I can’t substantiate this as much as I’d like but these odds are too good to pass up on. Sanfrecce haven’t played consistently well this season but they’re twice the side that Tokyo are. I think this is another case of the bookies reading too much into Tokyo’s one-off season of glory last year because they’re simply not that good a side! I mean, hell, they’ve already lost three out of four away games this season so that in itself should tell you that they’re not the side that they feigned to be last season by being difficult to beat on the road. They don’t score many goals and they’re facing a Sanfrecce side that are a very capable side on their day so I’m favouring the home side here. Tokyo have only ever beaten Sanfrecce once in the J-League with Sanfrecce winning two out of their last three meetings without conceding a goal in any of those three games. Sanfrecce are ultimately too good for Tokyo and odds of evens are good enough to take Sanfrecce to win this game, in my opinion, with or without good form behind them!

Verdict: Sanfrecce Hiroshima to win at evens.

Stromsgodset vs Valerenga Oslo – home win at 11/8.

This should be one hell of a game! Stromsgodset’s young team are doing what a lot of their older contemporaries have done for a long time by making their hometown of Drammen a stronghold in footballing terms. Stromsgodset have won four out of four games at home this season and are playing good football to boot. Whereas I doubt that a side of such youth can maintain such form all season long, what is certain is that they’re playing well now and they’re a dangerous side to face as a result. They average scoring nearly three goals per home game currently and average conceding just once per home game so it’s easy to see why they’re doing so well. Stromsgodset won this fixture 3-0 last season and they’re playing well enough to match that scoreline today and I’m certainly not going to bet against it happening.

Visitors Valerenga are also causing their fair share of upsets. They’re playing some good football but rather sporadically, which isn’t enough for me to fear them today. Their 6-1 demolition of Odd Grenland last match was highly impressive but you’ll often see two very different Valerenga sides – one for home games and one for away games – and not in the atypical sense. They failed to win against a demoralised and leaky Brann Bergen in their last away game, they were crushed 5-3 by a rampant Start Kristiansand despite doing enough to match them, and have claimed a narrow victory at Sandefjord in their last three away games – hardly convincing, is it? I like Valerenga and I have a lot of respect for them but they defend poorly on the road and don’t turn up far too often. Drammen is not the place to go with this type of form but that’s how they’re approaching it so we should see a good game today.

I think you’d have to say that Valerenga are the better of these two sides although there’s not much in it. However, in Drammen, no side is superior to Stromsgodset and the hosts have made the most of their home advantage this year. They’re prolific at home and their youthful approach has served them well so I expect them to tear holes out of a leaky Valerenga defence and win this game at generous odds although I must emphasise caution on this game as we have two good sides locking horns here!

Verdict: Stromsgodset to win at 11/8.

Ruch Chorzow vs Legia Warsaw – away win at 6/4.

Contary to the above preview, I expect this game to bore the shit out of any viewer. Legia are one of the most boring (but effective) sides in the Ekstraklasa and as such should be able to stifle a usually vibrant and potent Ruch Chorzow. The hosts aren’t known for boring games because they play some good attacking football but Legia bring something akin to a disease to this game with their negative and droll football that appears to infect their opponents consistently. I sometimes wonder if the only way that Legia win games is by boring sides to sleep before scoring goals to win the game but either way, the giants are effective – that cannot be questioned.

Ruch have let themselves down in the latter part of this campaign by not scoring enough goals. I say that in the most respectful fashion, incidentally, because this is arguably Ruch’s finest campaign for years and I have nothing but respect for their footballing style. However, despite winning their last two home games, they’ve elected to do them in very difficult fashion against lowly Polonia Bytom and Odra Wodzislaw, conceding far too many goals in those games and only narrowly winning. Ruch have the advantage of being stronger than most sides when it comes to scoring goals so scoring goals can bail them out of bad situations. However, I don’t envision that happening against a watertight Legia defence today – they’ll need a much more professional display to see the visitors lose this one.

Legia haven’t won here for some time but I’m overlooking that because Wisla’s defeat yesterday blows this Ekstraklasa race wide open. Legia will take great confidence from that outcome and have ground out some good results lately, winning three out of their last four games, arguably their best form of the season so far. The results don’t quite show Legia’s dependency on goalkeeper Mucha in recent times, particularly last match, but momentum remains momentum and Legia certainly have it currently. Legia’s biggest handicap this season has been scoring goals, particularly away from home, but they’ve scored a good number of goals lately so should be able to do so again today.

With Ruch missing arguably their best defender Grodzicki through injury and not defending well to begin with, it’s hard to see them winning this one. However, the impetus is on Legia to win this game and they have the motivation and momentum to win it so I think the odds of 6/4 are good enough to take today although with tentative stakes, of course!

Verdict: Legia Warsaw to win at 6/4.
