Javi Guerra
VAL
Sends three crosses
Guerra recorded one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Celta Vigo.
Analysis: Guerra was one of Valencia's brighter performers despite the team's inability to find a breakthrough. The midfielder provided much of the hosts' progression and creativity, using his ability to carry the ball forward to inject some life into an otherwise stagnant attack. Valencia ultimately generated very little as a team, finishing with only two efforts on target, but Guerra's individual display stood out amid the lack of attacking production. He should remain an important part of the midfield as Valencia searches for more creativity in the final third.
Scores versus Barcelona
Guerra scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-1 win versus Barcelona.
Analysis: Guerra scored in Saturday's season finale, a strike in the 66th minute which tied the match at 1-1. He's been in excellent form as of late, scoring three goals and providing three assists across his last seven appearances. Most of his production this season came during that stretch, as he finished the campaign with four goals and six assists in 36 appearances (25 starts).
Nets brace to sink Sociedad
Guerra scored two goals from four shots (three on goal) while crossing once inaccurately and creating a chance during Sunday's 4-3 win over Real Sociedad.
Analysis: Guerra scored in the 8th and 93rd minutes while leading Valencia with his four shots in the match. The goals were the first since March 8th for Guerra as he's combined for three goal involvements, nine shots, five chances created and seven crosses over his last three starts.
Credited with assist
Guerra assisted once to go with four shots (two on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Thursday's 1-1 draw versus Rayo Vallecano.
Analysis: Aside from setting up the team's lone goal, Guerra was an active threat going forward from midfield and took several shots throughout the game. When Guerra is this involved on offense, he delivers excellent floor from his CM role. Guerra has been outstanding as a playmaker of late with three assists, six shots, 11 chances created and 14 crosses over his last five league starts.
Credited with assist in win
Guerra assisted once to go with four crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 2-1 win versus Girona.
Analysis: Guerra was credited with the assist on the opening goal, as his perfect through ball allowed Largie Ramazani to find the back of the net in the 50th minute. Despite his holding role in midfield, Guerra has found ways to contribute offensively. He has two assists in his last two matches and has also created 11 chances, while adding 15 crosses, in his last eight starts.
Key assist in draw
Javi Guerra assisted once to go with zero corners and two chances created in Tuesday's 1-1 draw versus Mallorca.
Analysis: Javi Guerra's flicked header to the back post Tuesday assisted Valencia's lone goal in their 1-1 stalemate versus Mallorca. The midfielder entered the fray with just 30 minutes remaining and made one block in support of the defensive effort. After a streak of six successive matches in the starting XI, Javi Guerra has gone as an unused substitute and made one substitute appearance across two subsequent fixtures.
