Game: RECREATIVO vs VALLADOLID
Type: Spanish La Liga
Date: 8 March, 2009
PREVIEW
13th meets 9th as in-form Recreativo hosts Valladolid. Recreativo have improved in recent matches, losing only once their last 9 matches and pushing them upwards in the league standings. A closer look, however, will reveal that most of those points were accumulated from their away matches - underlining the fact that they play better counter-attacking on away soil as opposed to leading the play at home.
Valladolid's win over Valencia last week will surely have given the team a boost when they visit Recreativo. They have the same style of approach as the home team, prefering to sit-and-wait and counter attack when opportunity arises. The similarity in style of both teams will most probably lead to both teams cancelling each other out.
KWIK STATS

THE PICK
VALLADOLID's excellent head-to-head record provides them with the psychological edge to get at least a point from this match. Go with the visitors on asian handicap to grind the home team's 3 match unbeaten run to a halt.
