Rayo Vallecano Prediction

After recent losses to Leganes, Espanyol, Atletico Madrid and Getafe, Rayo Vallecano find themselves firmly entrenched in the bottom three of La Liga but they’re still just two points adrift of safety and fourth from bottom club, Celta Vigo, ahead of this crucial home fixture against Girona.

This is a disappointing run of results for the hosts who seemed to have turned a corner recently when they strung together a five match run without defeat and included wins over Levante, Real Valladolid, Celta Vigo and Deportivo Alaves, as well as picking up a point in a draw with Real Sociedad.

Results at home were slowly improving until their recent defeats to Leganes and Atletico Madrid, but the upcoming visit from 15th placed Girona give the hosts a decent chance of at least putting a halt to their recent spate of defeats, with a chance of perhaps getting all three points here.

The hosts have lost just two of their last seven at the their Estadio de Vallecas in Madrid, and they’ll fancy their chances of taking something from this match.

 

Key-Facts – Rayo Vallecano v Girona

  • Rayo Vallecano have lost just 2 of their last 7 matches at home in La Liga
  • Girona have managed just 1 win from their last 6 away matches
  • Girona have kept just 3 clean sheets away from home this season

 

Girona Prediction

Onto Girona, and the visitors sit in 15th place on the La Liga ladder and just five points ahead of their hosts as they look to build upon their last two results which have showed encouraging signs for Girona.

Recent results include a 2-1 win away at Real Madrid along with a point at home with Real Sociedad as they shared the points over a dour 0-0 draw, and they’ll hit the road again on Friday night as they look to keep their unbeaten run going at second from bottom club, Rayo Vallecano.

However, up until they recorded an impressive win at Real Madrid last time out on their travels, Girona had endured a miserable five match sequence on the road without a win, and included four defeats at Athletic Bilbao, Sevilla, Real Betis and Eibar.

The visitors have achieved just three clean sheets on the road throughout this season in La Liga, and their hosts will be very aware that home form will be the key to their Spanish top flight survival, so Girona could come under some heavy pressure on Friday night.

Betting Tips Verdict

Rayo Vallecano know that all three points here would lift them out of the bottom three of La Liga ahead of this weekend’s action. Backing the hosts with the draw no bet option looks a good bet here.
