In their last 10 home league games, Valladolid has managed 2 wins, 4 draws, and 4 losses, accumulating only 10 points from a possible 30. In their home league matches, the most frequent halftime score has been 0-1 (4 in 11 games). Defensive solidity has not been their strong point, as they conceded goals in 8 of their last 10 games in this competition.

The Real Valladolid managed to break their poor spell in the last round by winning away against Ceuta 0-3, with goals from David Torres, Víctor Meseguer, and Chuki. The team organizes its offensive phase from a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Juanmi Latasa occupying the last line and serving as a reference to hold the opposing defense. Behind him, Sergi Canós, Chuki, and Peter Federico operate with high mobility, alternating support inside, deep runs, and occupying half-spaces depending on the ball circulation. Right winger Amath Ndiaye has a long-term injury and is the only confirmed absence for the upcoming match.

The team has adopted the 5-3-2 formation as a base for organization, utilizing Jefté Betancor and Victor Valverde as the duo responsible for occupying the last line and maintaining attacking actions.
