Two clubs in opposite halves of the Liga BBVA table will do battle today in a league match between Valencia and Cordoba. The first-division clash scheduled for 4 p.m. ET will be held at Mestalla Stadium in Valencia and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on beIN Sports en Español.

Valencia manager Nuno Espirito Santo had this to offer ahead of today's league encounter (via Inside Spanish Football): "I think the euphoria around the club at the moment is great for us. It's a recognition of the team from the fans, who I ask to come out and support us again against Córdoba. The euphoria doesn't enter the dressing room, though. We are completely focused on our job. I've watched a lot of teams so far and I see some good competition around us."
