Valencia will look to stretch their unbeaten run in La Liga to four games when they welcome Granada to the Mestalla Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
Both teams will enter the contest off the back of midweek Copa del Rey victories, with Los Che beating UD Logrones 2-0, while Granada also advanced in the cup competition courtesy of a 3-0 success at Arosa.
The hosts' last league game was a 2-2 draw on the road against Athletic Bilbao. Having finished 16th last term, Valencia have bounced back in strong fashion under Ruben Baraja so far this season, picking up 15 points from their opening 11 matches to sit ninth in the table, just four points adrift of fifth-placed Real Sociedad.
Granada, meanwhile, were taken aback by a flurry of early Villarreal strikes last weekend, and despite pulling two back before half-time, they eventually went on to lose 3-2 at home. Winless in their past five La Liga games (3D, 2L), the Andalusian outfit are languishing in relegation zone, currently 19th in the table, boasting just six points from their opening 11 matches.
