Valencia
Almeria
  • Gabriel Paulista has left the club as of this week to join Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid. Mouctar Diakhaby or Cenk Ozkacar should come in and replace him alongside Cristhian Mosquera.
  • Roman Yaremchuk came off the bench against Atleti and could feature in this one, pushing Javi Lopez out wide and Fran Perez to the bench.
  • Sergi Canos is out with a significant hamstring injury and could be set back as far as late February.
  • Luis Suarez has suffered another injury blow in quick succession and will be out due to a hamstring problem until late February.
  • Largie Ramazani returns from suspension and is available for selection.
  • Leo Baptistao should start the game up top in the place of the injured Suarez.

Prediction

  • Almeria were able to earn a 2-2 draw in this match's reverse fixture back in September - a time where the Andalusians where much more optimistic about their future La Liga status. Still chasing their first win of the season, they travel west on the South Coast to face eighth placed Valencia who pose as a very tough opponent.
  • Gabriel Paulista leaving for the club that defeated Valencia last week leaves a bold question mark in defence. Ruben Baraja will have to make the right choice between Cenk Ozkacar and Mouctar Diakhaby.
  • Expect Almeria to score, but Valencia to see the game out and move into seventh place in La Liga.
