Prediction: 1-1
Valladolid
All eyes will be on Estadio Municipal de Butarque when Leganes and Real Valladolid square off against each other in the La Liga 2 derby. Leganes aim to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Fuenlabrada, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts. Experienced midfielder Fede should keep his place in the starting XI after finding the net in the last league fixture. You should bear in mind that the capital club are eyeing their second home win of the season.
La Pucela, on the other hand, are undefeated in the previous three league fixtures. Real Valladolid, though, have been struggling on the travels of late, which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be Oscar Plano, who found the net in a 1-1 draw with Malaga at the weekend.
