Espanyol will hope to make the best of their home conditions to kickstart their campaign as they host Rayo Vallecano this weekend. This La Liga match at the Stage Front Stadium on Saturday comes with our prediction of ending up with at least a point for the home team.
The home team has one point from three matches and is in the bottom-three ahead of this round, while Rayo are outside the top-six with four points. Espanyol started their season with back-to-back defeats, losing 1-0 to Real Valladolid and Real Sociedad in the first two matches.
They did make a comeback in their third match, drawing 0-0 with Atletico Madrid, but concerns remain over their scoring as they are yet to find the back of the net this season. Vallecano have gone the other way round, starting the season with four points from two matches.
They started with a 2-1 win over Real Sociedad before a 0-0 draw with Getafe. The visitors were then beaten 2-1 by Barcelona, but it was a game where Rayo took the lead in the ninth minute but conceded in the 60th and the 82nd minute to lose the match.
Espanyol have good memories of their last match against Rayo, winning 2-1 in May 2023. Can the home team revive those happy moments and make it another win here? That would make the home fans generate a lot of buzz, but Rayo may have a say in that.
