Valencia might have had a great start to this season but they have struggled a little as of late, especially in front of their own fans at the Mestalla.

Unai Emery has seen his side lose their last two games at home and speaking to Marca today he says that they need to turn things around this weekend.

"We have to look at the three points but we also have to start winning at home in front of our fans. We have a responsibility to do well at home," mused the coach.

"We are very self-critical and we set the standard high, that will help us to regain our confidence and it should enable us to rise above any pressure."

Emery's time at Valencia can only be described as a success so far, with the club turning around from a poor season last year to one that looks very promising this time. Against Real Betis this weekend though they face a team who are also on the up and the coach knows it will not be an easy match.

"They are in good form and are playing very well, with a good balance in the side and ultimately, they are winning games," he declared.

"They have some good wingers who cross well and it will be a tough match. It is important to win though and to leave them behind."

"We will try to play with a good balance between defence and attack."
