- ITVX (UK) - ITV4 (UK) Valencia, meanwhile, have had a disappointing campaign and come into this fixture only one point above the relegation zone.

Real Madrid are currently second in LaLiga 2022-23, and are five points behind table toppers FC Barcelona.

Also, Lucas Vazquez sprained his ankle in the Spanish Super Cup semi-final win against Valencia earlier this month and the Spaniard will not recover in time to feature on Thursday. Benzema’s presence in the midfield is of utmost importance for Real, and his movement and world class finishing will be much sought by Madrid fans, as they look to cut short the deficit between them and Barcelona. The 27-year-old has three goal contributions in La Liga this season, and his defensive numbers are also pretty impressive. The Ballon D’or winner has already scored nine times in eleven games, and also has a maiden assist to his name. Valencia have lost three of their past four games, and are a solitary point away from the Relegation zone. The Galacticos have only picked 4 points in their last three games, as a result of which they find themselves in a vulnerable position.

A poor run of results has left Real Madrid looking up at the LaLiga Santander leaders Barcelona, with the difference between the two sides now five points.

The LaLiga Santander fixture between Real Madrid and Valencia will kick off 21:00 CET, which is the local time in Madrid. Viewers in the United States of America can watch the match at 12:00 PST and 15:00 EST. - Real Madrid.

Action Network soccer expert Anthony Dabbundo previews Real Madrid vs. Valencia in La Liga. He provides his pick and prediction.

All of the steam toward Real Madrid pushed this line to a nearly flat -1.5, and I’ll jump in on Valencia. My projection makes Real Madrid -191 in this matchup. They’ve been both unlucky and below average on set pieces, but surprisingly Real Madrid are a pretty middling set piece attack themselves. It’s not that Real Madrid aren’t one of the best teams in Europe, but the market consistently inflates them. As good as Vinicius Junior, Karim Benzema and the surrounding talent is at Real Madrid, there are cracks in this side. The gap between them and Barcelona is now eight points, but Real Madrid has a game in hand — Thursday’s home contest against Valencia.

Real Madrid will be missing Lucas Vazquez, Ferland Mendy and David Alaba for Thursday's La Liga contest with Valencia.

There is a limit, and they have crossed the line. The schedule is crazy. "Camavinga played as a left-back because it was an emergency.

Combined efforts on the offensive and defensive sides of the pitch should be the keys to the game for Valencia to win. Valencia gave Real Madrid a bit of a headache earlier in January before losing on penalties. Back the home team to come away with three points. The 35-time La Liga champions have also won 11 and drawn five of their last 16 meetings with Valencia on home soil. Their 17.2 tackles, 14.6 clearances, 7.1 interceptions, and 2.8 saves are among the highest numbers in the league, but they are a bit rough and scrappy, making 14.8 fouls and 2.8 yellow cards per game. Real Madrid looks like they are back to their winning ways and aggressive playstyle so this match should be an easy job for the Vikings. More effort in the defensive backline is expected from Jose Luis Gaya, Mouctar Diakhaby, Eray Comert, and Dimitri Foulquier. Real Madrid’s last game for January ended in a goalless draw, despite dominating the ball in 61% of the 90 minutes while also tallying 20 total shots and 10 corner kicks. Ferland Mendy, Lucas Vasquez, and David Alaba will miss time on the football field as they are dealing with injury issues. Karim Benzema, the recent Ballon d’Or holder, ranks third in the league for most goals scored at nine. Valencia sits at the 14th spot in the La Liga table, but is just one point away from relegation. However, the Bats eventually fell to the Whites in the penalty shoot-out, where Eray Comert made an off-target shot and Jose Luis Gaya’s attempt was saved by Thibaut Courtois.

5 It's just a shame for them that it was also La Real goalkeeper Remiro's best game of the campaign too. If they win, the gap will be 5: still a huge obstacle to overcome, but we should never rule out Los Blancos. I think it is fair to say that one could have seen something like this coming, as the modern Valencia, unfortunately, never seem too far from a crisis. Of course, this means that Voro has stepped in for what feels like the 300th time as caretaker coach as they look to avoid slipping into a relegation battle. Let's see if Voro can be the man once again to shake things up and get them out of the bad run that is swallowing their confidence by the day. 4 Barcelona won by a single goal for the 4th consecutive time last night, the first time that has ever happened in their history. Any slip up now could prove fatal, especially given Cádiz have got 7 points from 4 games since January (including a win over Valencia) and have just signed 3(!) new strikers. Hopefully the Bernabéu heaters get fired up which do a great job! We are in a new situation [compared to previous seasons under Voro] and I don't have a magic wand. We have had 2 or 3 sessions, they have changed their mental chip and are ready.

Benzema is believed to have complained about it after the draw with Sociedad. The former Chelsea man has become a key player at the Bernabeu since arriving in 2018 and played over 200 games for the club. It’s a different story for Valencia, who find themselves in disarray after Gennaro Gattuso became the 10th manager in nine years to leave the club on Monday. Real have just started to get on the ball in the last few minutes and are starting to tick. First chance of the game, and it's a big one. The Real captain may smell blood tonight against a Valencia side in chaos. The ball falls for Asensio in the box and he hits it well but Paulista anticipates brilliantly to keep things level. Benzema comes forward well on the left and looks for Asensio in the middle. He's been given far too much space on the left wing by the Real defence and has whipped in some dangerous looking balls. Asensio whips a brilliant free kick into the box and it's headed for Benzema at the far post. The former Arsenal defender gets across and heads it clear at the last minute, stopping a second huge chance in five minutes. Carvajal comes on in his place, a first appearance for the 31-year-old after a spell out injured.
