Valladolid Beat Puerto Sagunto 37–30 in ASOBAL League
Valladolid and Puerto Sagunto met in the ASOBAL League on September 27, 2026, and the hosts came out on top with a 37–30 scoreline. The result kept Valladolid unbeaten after two opening games and extended their winning streak to two matches. Puerto Sagunto, who had already collected a point from their first outing, could not add to their tally.
Valladolid sit fourth in the table with four points from two wins, while Puerto Sagunto remain ninth after one victory and one draw. The gap between them at this stage is only two points, but the quality of results tells a different story. The home side's two wins have been comfortable enough to suggest they have found their rhythm early in the season.
We had called for a home victory with 77 per cent confidence before kickoff, and the match confirmed that reading. Valladolid controlled the tempo from the start and never let Puerto Sagunto settle into their usual patterns. The scoreline reflected a team that knew what it wanted and executed it without fuss.
Looking at recent form, Valladolid have been steady. Their last five outings include a win against BM Villa de Aranda, a narrow victory over Cuenca, and a win against Torrelavega, though they also dropped points against Veszprém and drew with Aguas Santas. Puerto Sagunto's recent record shows more volatility: a heavy defeat to Granollers BM, a thrilling 39–38 win over Ademar León, a loss to Benidorm, and a draw with Cuenca.
The result moves Valladolid further clear of the mid-table pack, even if the table itself remains fluid after just two rounds. Puerto Sagunto will need to turn that draw into a win soon if they want to climb. For now, the home side has built momentum, and the away side must find answers.
