Valencia CF vs UD Almería Prediction 23 January 2023

In the last chronological match of the La Liga matchday 18, Valencia will measure their strength against Almeria.

Twelfth place, 19 points and goals 23-18 are not the best results of Valencia, which at the beginning of the league season planned to impose a fight for the top four. Let us remind you that in the previous five meetings, Los Ches defeated Betis 3-0, drew 1-1 with Real Sociedad, and also lost 0-1 to Barcelona, 1-2 to Villarreal and 0-1 to Cadiz.

Newcomers Almeria are thirteenth with 18 points and a goal difference of 18-26, which suits them perfectly. In the recent past, the Rojiblancos played with mixed success against Barcelona (0-2), Getafe (1-0), Cadiz (1-1), Real Sociedad (0-2) and Atletico (1-1).

Almeria are the worst away team in La Liga, so their status as the pair's clear underdog is fully justified. However, Valencia can also create difficulties for themselves out of the blue, so we expect a low-scoring game with a slight advantage for the hosts.
