Valencia only have 13 points from 19 games in LaLiga 2024/25 (W2 D7 L10). Meanwhile, in only eight of the 57 instances in which a team had 13 points or fewer at this stage of the campaign in the competition (three points per win) did they avoid relegation, with Real Zaragoza being the last to do so in the 2011/12 campaign.

Real Sociedad have won three of their last five LaLiga matches (D1 L1), just one win fewer than in their previous 12 matches in the competition (W4 D3 L5).
