Valencia were held 0-0 by Athletic Bilbao at the Mestalla last night.
Los Che slipped to third in the Primera Division table after dropping two points.
Nuno Espirito Santo's men were starved of goalscoring chances by Ernesto Valverde's organised side and are now three points behind leaders Real Madrid and a point from Barcelona.
Valencia had scored three times in each of their five matches at Mestalla but were pegged back by a determined and energetic Athletic side who came into the game on the back of two consecutive league wins but hurting from their untimely exit from the Champions League in mid-week.
