Recent Burgos and Valencia Matches Analysis

Burgos Last 5 Matches:

• Burgos 1-0 Eibar (La Liga 2)
• Cordoba 2-0 Burgos (La Liga 2)
• Burgos 1-1 Real Zaragoza (La Liga 2)
• Burgos 3-1 Getafe (Copa del Rey)
• Almeria 1-2 Burgos (La Liga 2)

Operating in the Segunda División, Burgos CF has emerged as a resilient "giant-killer" in cup competition while remaining competitive in the league. Their last five matches include a standout victory over Getafe in the Copa del Rey and a league win over Almería. Despite these highs, they have struggled with consistency leaving them 8th in the second tier.

Valencia Last 5 Matches:

• Valencia 1-1 Elche (La Liga)
• Celta Vigo 4-1 Valencia (La Liga)
• Valencia 1-1 Mallorca (La Liga)
• Sporting Gijon 0-2 Valencia (Copa del Rey)
• Atletico Madrid 2-1 Valencia (La Liga)

Valencia remains in a perilous position near the La Liga relegation zone, with their form showing signs of a deep-seated struggle. They haven't won a league game in their last five attempts, recording draws against Mallorca and, most recently, Elche. These stalemates were punctuated by a heavy loss to Celta Vigo and a narrow defeat away at Atletico Madrid. Their only recent joy came in the Copa del Rey with a narrow win over third-tier Cartagena, but their league survival remains under serious threat due to a chronic lack of clinical finishing. A loss here could spell out Carlos Corberan’s future at the Mestalla.
