After winning six of their first 13 LaLiga matches against Villarreal (D2 L5), Real Valladolid have won only three of their last 13 matches against the Yellows in the competition (D3 L7).
Villarreal are on their best run of consecutive wins (two) and unbeaten games (four, W2 D2) away to Valladolid in LaLiga. In fact, they have scored on each of their last three visits to Pucela (six goals in total), after failing to do so on nine of their previous 10 league trips (two goals in total).
Real Valladolid are coming off a win in their last LaLiga match, 3-2 against Alavés, after failing to win any of their previous eight (D2 L6). They haven’t won 2+ in a row in the competition since April 2023 (W2, one of them against Villarreal).
Villarreal have lost just one of their last seven LaLiga away games (W4 D2), although it was the most recent one (0-2 against Real Madrid). Indeed, only Barcelona (15) have taken more away points than the Yellows in the competition this season (10).
In the last league game against Alavés, Real Valladolid scored two goals from penalties (Mamadou Sylla and Selim Amallah) in the same LaLiga game for just the second time in the 21st Century, after doing so in August 2012 against Levante (both scored by Víctor Pérez).
