Corberán Stresses Importance of Securing Three Crucial Points
Carlos Corberán addressed the media at Valencia’s Ciudad Deportiva ahead of Saturday’s LaLiga trip to the Martínez Valero. He stressed the importance of securing three crucial points before the match.
Team news
Unai Núñez is ruled out with a hamstring strain and will not travel. The club will monitor his recovery.
Renzo Saravia has fully integrated into the squad and is available for selection. His match fitness continues to improve.
Opponent analysis
Elche have built most of their LaLiga tally at home. They currently have 29 points, with 25 of them earned at the Martínez Valero.
Their style is consistent. They seek possession and often use the goalkeeper as an extra outfield player.
Tactical focus
Valencia aim to control matches and remain defensively solid while taking the initiative. The coaching staff want aggressive, purposeful attacking play.
Corberán admitted the previous performance fell short of the club’s standards. That requires demanding preparation and strict self-discipline ahead of the game.
Stakes and atmosphere
There are 24 points still available this season, and every match carries importance. Corberán wants a win to restore the team’s image and reward the supporters.
He acknowledged the pressure from Mestalla crowds and the reality of whistles or chants. His self-discipline remains high and his commitment to the club is undiminished.
Rafa Mir and Germán Valera
Rafa Mir’s absence had been significant given his on-field contributions. He supplied an assist at the Bernabéu and scored against Real Betis.
Germán Valera left the club quickly, so Corberán had limited time with him. Both players helped the team when they could and received public thanks.
Final note
The coach reiterated the need to perform well to achieve the desired result. Filmogaz.com will follow the match and report developments from the Martínez Valero.
