Rayo Vallecano will be looking to bounce back when they host Villarreal in their next La Liga match. The two sides face off on Saturday with Rayo starting the weekend in sixth place, one spot behind Villarreal. Read on for our prediction.
Rayo Vallecano haven't won this fixture in the last three meetings, though two of those ended in draws. They are coming from a tough outing away to Barcelona where they lost 1-0.
That was their first defeat in 10 matches and back at home, where they have three straight wins, Rayo Vallecano will be confident of victory. They’ve managed just one clean sheet in their last six home matches.
Villarreal are also bringing into this game a strong run though their most recent match ended 1-1 against struggling Valencia. The Yellow Submarines are unbeaten in the last five matches, with three of them producing victories.
However, they have just one clean sheet in the five matches as both teams scoring has been regular in their matches. Villarreal have a six-point buffer ahead of Rayo in their hunt for a top four finish.
They are also six points behind the team currently fourth so this is a key game in their ambitions for European football.

Our Rayo Vallecano vs Villarreal Prediction
Neither of these teams has complete dominance in this fixture. The last time they faced off, it ended in a 1-1 draw, the second such result in three meetings between the teams. Rayo Vallecano will want to make use of their home advantage but coming into this game they have drawn as many times as they have won in the last nine matches.
Villarreal will not be an easy opponent either and we may be headed to another stalemate here. Our prediction for Rayo Vallecano v Villarreal is for the match to end in a draw and both teams to score.
