Granada will welcome Valencia to the Nuevo Estadio de Los Cármenes in La Liga action on Thursday.
The hosts have endured a 10-game winless run in La Liga, suffering four consecutive losses. They met Cadiz in their away game on Saturday, suffering a 1-0 defeat. With just two wins in 29 league games, they are in 19th place in the league table with 14 points.
The visitors have also struggled a bit in the league recently, with just one win in their last six outings. They resumed their league campaign following the international break with a goalless draw at home against Mallorca.
They have a game in hand over seventh-placed Real Betis, so a win in this match will help them climb to seventh place at the expense of their northern rivals.

Granada vs Valencia Prediction
Nazaríes have just one win in their last 18 games in all competitions. They have suffered 12 losses in that period while failing to score in seven games. Their two wins in La Liga this season have both come at home. While they have just two wins in this fixture since 1976, they are unbeaten in their last four home meetings against the visitors.
José Ramón Sandoval suffered a narrow 1-0 loss in his first game in charge as he left top-scorer Myrto Uzuni on the bench after the striker returned from the international break with a knock.
Los Ches have just one win in their last six games, failing to score in four matches, and might struggle here. Just three of their 11 wins in La Liga this term have come on their travels.
Roman Yaremchuk became the latest casualty for the visitors after he picked up a hamstring strain on Saturday against Mallorca. Sergi Canós was absent against Mallorca with an injury and is doubtful for the trip to Granada.
Considering the recent drop in form of the two teams, a low-scoring draw is likely to ensue.
