Preview

Tournament – La Liga

Date – Sunday, August 25, 2024

Kick-off Time – 03:00 pm GMT

Venue – Santiago Bernabeu

Real Madrid will take on Valladolid in their second match of the 2024-25 La Liga season on Sunday, August 25. The Spanish giants came into the domestic season on the back of their UEFA Super Cup triumph, beating Atalanta 2-0.

However, they played out a disappointing 1-1 draw against Mallorca in their La Liga opener at Estadi Mallorca Son Moix last Sunday. They were wasteful in attack and lacked control in the second half. Moreover, Ferland Mendy was also sent off late in the game.

Valladolid, meanwhile, had a perfect start to their campaign on their return to the Spanish top flight. They beat Espanyol, who also earned promotion for this season, 1-0 at home in their first game of the season. They now face a tough test against the champions at their home on Sunday.

Real Madrid vs Valladolid Prediction

Real Madrid didn’t have an ideal start to their La Liga title defence as they dropped points against Mallorca. They will be keen to get the record straight at home against Valladolid. The attacking trio of Mbappe, Vinicius, and Rodrygo is lethal with further support from Jude Bellingham and are likely to create many chances.

Valladolid won their first game against Espanyol but the latter created multiple chances as well but weren’t clinical enough. The visitors will find it tough to beat the champions.

Predicted Score: Real Madrid 3-0 Valladolid
