Match Facts:
Granada (20th, 20 pts):
- Jose Ramon Sandoval's men have won just one and lost four of their last five matches. Levante UD's victory on Friday left the Andalusians propping up the table and needing at least a point to climb off the bottom.
- The Granada squad are well aware of the importance of this fixture and that only absolute commitment to the cause will be enough to pull them out of the mire. In the words of January signing Ricardo Costa, "We have to put in a professional performance and be 110% focused to get the victory, which is what's most important. This is a must-win match."
Valencia (12th, 28 pts):
- With a spring in their step. Such is Valencia's mood heading into their trip to Granada, which comes fresh off an impressive 6-0 romp in the Europa League.Having regained their mojo in continental action, Gary Neville's side will look to do the same in the Liga BBVA against opposition who are in equal need of the points.
- Los Che are unbeaten on their four visits to the Nuevo Los Carmenes since Granada returned to the top flight. They have secured three wins and a draw from these games.
