With their 0 point advantage in the league table, Valencia II fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Ebro.

Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Ebro have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 8-10-11 (win-draw-loss) from 29 matches.

Valencia II form and stats

2 victories, 4 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what Valencia II have to build on here at Campo Municipal de Beniferri in the Segunda B - Group 3.

The fans are hoping that Valencia II will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 3-4 away loss in the Segunda B - Group 3 game against FC Andorra (placed 4th). Before that, Valencia II drew at home versus Barcelona II.

A disaster for the home team in their last match (vs FC Andorra) as a comfortable lead 2-0 was completely ruined into a loss 3-4.

This is expected to be a close game, with Valencia II perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Valencia II as a small favourite), we find eight games. Valencia II has won 3 of these, drawn 3 and lost 2.

The Valencia II fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 8 matches. On the other hand, Valencia II have conceded 8 goals.
