Defensive solidity the joint best in LaLiga

Valencia CF have let in just 23 goals from 29 matchdays

Five clean sheets from the last 7 LaLiga games have helped Valencia CF to become the side with the second fewest goals conceded in the domestic league.

The team have let in just 23 goals in 29 matchdays, and are showing particular solidity in the second half of the campaign: Since the midway point of the season, no side has conceded fewer than Valencia CF's 6 from 10 games, an honour they share with Atletico Madrid.

Defensive improvement was one of the goals for Marcelino for his second season in charge, and it is something the coach has achieved. Eight more goals had been scored against VCF at this point last season.

There are now 9 games to go in the current campaign, and the team will be hoping for another shutout on Wednesday night against Real Madrid at Mestalla.
