Everything you need to know about Real Valladolid-FC Barcelona in the League

This Tuesday to the 22:00 hours (peninsular schedule Spanish) the FC Barcelona will confront to the Real Valladolid in the Stadium José Zorrilla in the party of the day 15 of LaLiga Santander, although the culés have still a pending party to contest. The ones of Ronald Koeman come to trip in the duel against Valencia and carry the three points of the Pucela antoja key to follow escalando positions.

The Real Valladolid is one of these deceptive rivals for the 'big' since, in spite of going in eighteenth position, has a spirit of fight that, for example, already did him arañar a point against the Seville in Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán the past weekend. To the orders of Sergio González, the picture pucelano has formed a solid and able block to compete in First Division.

The FC Barcelona will not be able to despistarse in front of the Real Valladolid and more seeing the bad results of the culés out of house, that turn him into the worst visitor of LaLiga Santander beside Osasuna with hardly four points added in the five parties contested. The ones of Ronald Koeman have to face up this Tuesday to one of these parties that do not do you win leagues, but yes can you do lose them. And, given the circumstances, another trip could volatilizar all option of title for the Barcelona picture.

The infirmary culé, full

The FC Barcelona arrives to the party against the Valency with three drops of long length of leftovers known -Gerard Hammered, with an injury in the knee; Ansu Fati, with the meniscus broken; and Sergi Roberto, with a muscular break- and one that possibly leave to be it in few days: Ousmane Dembélé. Until yesterday, there was some hope that the French went in in the list of summoned but finally will not be able to go back until the next week against the Eibar.

Ronald Koeman will repeat a very similar alignment to the ones of the last parties (Marc-André ter Stegen; Sergiño Dest, Ronald Araújo, Óscar Mingueza, Jordi Alba; Sergio Busquets, Frenkie of Jong, Pedri; Martin Braithwaite, Antoine Griezmann and Leo Messi), although with the more than likely entrance of Clément Lenglet in the central axis after his two last suplencia.

Something that also will be an incógnita until the start of the meeting will be the system of game that will employ Ronald Koeman to measure to the Real Valladolid. In spite of beginning very firm with the 4-2-3-1, the Dutch technician has begun to employ the 4-3-3 in some phases of the parties with results shoot. It will be necessary to see, then , if the zone of creation will lead it two interiors with a mediocentro by behind or a double pivote linked by a mediapunta.

Valencia already has showed that it is dangerous

The Real Valladolid began LaLiga Santander with bad foot but in the last weeks has improved a lot the results. In fact, the vallisoletanos only have lost one of his last six parties in the domestic competition and add four points of the last six possible. Something that would have to put in alert to the ones of ronald Koeman and more knowing these difficulties that have the culés out of house.

This Monday, Sergio González, technician of the Real Valladolid, appeared in front of the media and remembered that although to the FC Barcelona "is costing him win went more than other years, can do click anytime because it has players of a lot of talent". The trainer of the Pucela added that "it never is good moment to play in front of the Barça because it is the second team that more possession of balloon has and the one who more passes gives to forward".

The drops of the Real Valladolid will be the ones of Kiko Olives and Saidy Janko, whereas Sergi Guardiola will be doubt until the last moment. In addition to a centre of the strong field with men like Míchel, Alcaraz or Roque Table, the Pucela stands out by his good game in the bands, with referents like Óscar Flat or Orellana. Arguments more than sufficient as so that the FC Barcelona do not take airily a crash that can be the goodbye definite to LaLiga if it does not win .
