Valencia shot-stopper Jaume Domenech stymied Ruben Rochina's top-corner free-kick attempt with an acrobatic one-handed effort to secure the three points Friday for a Los Che side desperate for a win.
Following a 26th minute header from German international Shkodran Mustafi that put Valencia ahead, Domenech's lunging dive secured the points for a stuttering side that sandwiched a goalless draw to Real Betis with losses to Zenit St. Petersburg and Espanyol.
The win moved Valencia to sixth in La Liga standings, three points shy of defending champions Barcelona.
