VAL vs CHE Dream11 Match Prediction | Champions League

VAL vs CHE Dream11 Match Prediction: Chelsea will take a trip to Valencia in what shall be a crunch game for both sides in the context of the Champions League.

Both Chelsea and Valencia have seven points each in Group S and to make matters interesting even Ajax has the same number of points from four games.

A win for either of the team will provide a window of opportunity to proceed to the next round of the European competition.

In the reverse fixture, it was Rodrigo’s goal which earned Valencia all three points at Stamford Bridge.

However, Frank Lampard’s men have grown strength to strength ever since and will be a tough cookie to crack in spite of playing the Spanish club away from home.

Match Details

Date- Wednesday, November 27 | Kick-Off– 11:25 PM (IST) | Venue- Mestalla


VAL vs CHE Dream11 | Team News

Valencia

  • Albert Celades will be worried ahead of the game since he will be without five first-team players.
  • Mouctar Diakhaby’s injury could make way for Gabriel Paulista in defence.
  • Ezequiel Gara is doubtful to start for the hosts as Eliquim Mangala could come in his place.
  • Daniel Wass is also likely to feature in central midfield, in case Francis Coquelin isn’t able to make the teamsheet.

Unavailable: Geoffrey Kondogbia, Cristiano Piccini, Goncalo Guedes and Mocular Diakhaby are ruled out due to injuries.

Doubtful: Denis Cheryshev, Rubem Sobrino, Francis Coquelin and Ezequiel Garay will be assessed prior to the kick-off.

 

Chelsea

  • Frank Lampard could tink a few changes post the 2-1 defeat to Manchester City.
  • Mason Mount could be named in the lineup after being on the bench against City.
  • N’Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic should be persisted by in midfield.
  • Reece James and Marcos Alonso are the options to choose from as full-backs for the visitors.

Unavailable: Ruben Loftus Cheek and Antonio Rudiger are on the sidelines due to injury.

Doubtful: Ross Barkley and Callum Hudson-Odoi are on the road to recovery but are unlikely to feature against Valencia.


Predicted Lineups

Valencia- Cillessen; Costa, Gabriel Paulista, Mangala, Gaya; Torres, Parejo, Wass, Vallejo; Gameiro, Gomez

Chelsea- Arrizabalaga; Azpilicueta, Zouma, Tomori, Palmieri; Kante, Jorginho; Willian, Mount, Pulisic; Abraham


Top Picks

Daniel Parejo has been a central figure in Valencia’s midfield this season. Parejo has six goals and two assists with a pass accuracy of 86% in the league. Whereas, he has a goal and an assist from four Champions League games so far.

Jorginho will have to anchor his way through the midfield against a challenging Valencia unit. The Italian international can be the transition from defence to attack. Jorginho has a pass accuracy of 90% with two goals in four Champions League games so far.


Grand League Tips

Maxi Gomez can be the danger man for Valencia to lead the attack. Gomez has six league goals from 13 appearances this season but is yet to score in the Champions League.

N’Golo Kante just like Jorginho could play a pivotal role in Chelsea’s central midfield region. The French international has featured in just one Champions League game so far due to injury but has been a key figure in the Premier League this season. Kante has three goals from six league games and averages 3.2 tackles every game.


Win Prediction

Though Valencia are playing at home, it’s the injury crisis which could come in their way and bite them. Chelsea, on the other hand, is buzzing with free-flowing football integrated with the right amount of youth that has a fearless approach to the game. Having said that, the Blues might be just able to nick a win past Valencia.
