- Real Valladolid have lost five straight La Liga 2024/2025 games Leganes are unbeaten in four meetings with Real Valladolid, winning once and drawing three times Leganes are the clear favourites at 1.34, with Valladolid 11.00 outsiders
Real Valladolid's season in La Liga 2024/2025 has been miserable, with them taking only 16 points from a possible 37 to sit bottom of the pile after 37 games. Alvaro Rubio has been their coach since February 2025, but he has not yet managed to improve their fortunes. Chuki has been their brightest spark recently, netting two of their three goals, but Valladolid have not scored a point in five games since losing 2-1 at Mallorca. Back-to-back 1-0 home defeats to Girona and Deportivo Alaves have left them licking their wounds ahead of this trip to Leganes, where they will try to break the hoodoo of not winning in two previous away games. This upcoming clash is the perfect setting for our Leganes vs Real Valladolid prediction, as both clubs are desperate to secure some final points.
Borja Jimenez has done a much better job of getting the best out of Leganes, who have 37 points from 37 games and are in 18th spot. He brought a greater sense of structure and organisation to the club when taking the reins in June 2023 and his team’s recent form has been pretty solid. The Pepones have gone unbeaten in their last two home games (1 win, 1 draw). Leganes have won six, drawn four and lost eight of 18 home La Liga 2024/2025 matches and their occasional defensive lapses are shown by the 27 goals they have conceded. As we look at the Leganes vs Real Valladolid preview, Munir El Haddadi has scored two of Leganes’ last six goals and they should have enough cutting edge to put Valladolid away on Saturday. Daniel Raba remains their biggest goal threat with eight in 28 La Liga 2024/2025 appearances, but Valladolid have not found a consistent finisher since Mamadou Sylla’s five in 28 appearances earlier this season.
Raul Moro has been their best creative force this season, providing all three of their goals in the past five La Liga 2024/2025 contests. Valladolid are so deep-sitting and low-pressing that they rarely get enough possession to have a chance of hurting the opposition on the counter-attack. Leganes are a more pragmatic club with a more compact shape and better discipline in pressing the opposition. When considering this Leganes vs Real Valladolid prediction, they should win this match at home, where they are stronger than on the road, and the odds on the hosts are not enough to tempt us to back them in the match result market. A draw at 5.75 seems an unlikely result, given the gulf in form between these two clubs and Valladolid’s away record of one win and 17 defeats from 18 away games this La Liga 2024/2025 season. In fact, if you look at the available Leganes vs Real Valladolid odds, Leganes are the clear favourites to claim all three points. Valladolid’s defence is the worst in the league and they have shipped 55 goals away with an average of 3.06 per trip, so we believe Over 2.5 goals could have some value in this match. The two benches will be desperate to grab the three points, which could lead to a tense opening half, but Leganes are the form team and should eventually get the win.
