Real Valladolid will head into this game off the back of a massive 1-0 win over Valencia Anuar Tuhami He scored the only goal of the game in the 20th minute, securing all three points for the hosts.

The win was enough to push the Whites and Violets off the bottom of the table, but they are only two points ahead of 20th-placed Valencia, who still have two games in hand, so the picture could change again very quickly.
