Real Valladolid vs Rayo Vallecano – Vallecano’s aspiration to crack the top-six is hampered by the fact that they have slipped slightly in recent weeks.
However, the two teams positioned slightly above them, Athletic Bilbao and Osasuna, face challenging upcoming games.
This could be a chance to make amends and make another run at the top six. The fact that they are pitted against the struggling Valladolid aids their cause.
This team has lost three consecutive league games and has only a two-point cushion over the relegation zone.
Real Valladolid vs Rayo Vallecano – Betting Analysis
In the past six years, Vallecano have lost just once against this opponent. In addition, they have been unbeaten at this stadium since 2017, and it has been ten years since they failed to score at this site.
Valladolid are currently on a losing trend, and to make matters worse, they have a poor head-to-head record against this opponent.
Vallecano, meanwhile, have lost just once in La Liga since October and are aiming for a top-six finish.
This weekend, Rayo to win at odds of 2.75 is a great wager. However, when it comes to scoring, Rayo’s defense is not performing well.

Real Valladolid versus Rayo Vallecano: who will prevail?
Vallecano’s head-to-head record against this opponent over the years is superior, and they have also been in superior form this season.
It is true that they are not in the ideal shape at the moment, but before the World Cup break they were on an unbeaten streak.

How many goals are predicted to be scored?
The last time Valladolid kept a clean sheet was in October, and the last time they did it in a head-to-head match was in 2016.
Vallecano will be eager to capitalize on the host’s poor defense. This weekend, a high-scoring thriller is anticipated.
Will Each Team Score in the Game?
