Marcelino has assured fans he expects to be in charge of Valencia next season.
The Spanish coach's contract runs until June 2019, yet given how positive his work has been there is also speculation that a new contract is on the horizon as well as a potential approach from Serie A team Napoli.
"I'm 99 percent sure that I'll be Valencia coach next season," he confirmed in his pre-match press conference.
"We haven't discussed an extension, the priority is to secure fourth place as soon as possible.
"My contract doesn't end on June 30, there are no problems, I'm not distracted from what we're trying to achieve."
