Last time out in La Liga, Real Madrid and Rayo Vallecano had contrasting fortunes. The two will next face off, with third-placed Real Madrid looking to bounce back against 14th-placed Rayo. We are not sure Real will be able to shut out Rayo; thus, our prediction involves both sides scoring.
Real Madrid showed their ruthless edge in the Champions League in midweek as they capitalized on Inter Milan’s mistakes in a 2-1 win.
As fate would have it, though, they failed to keep a clean sheet for the fourth time in five games this season. Last time out in the league, Real Madrid lost 1-0 to Real Betis, the only time they’ve failed to score for the first time in eight games.
Rayo are known to trouble Real Madrid in their recent meetings, even though they haven’t won this fixture a lot. Four times in the last 10 matches, they forced draws in this fixture, and they won once.
In those 10 games, they limited Real Madrid to three clean sheets, two being draws. In this spirit, the visitors will feel they have what it takes to pin their more accomplished hosts.
Los Franjirrojos have just secured their first win of the season, beating Racing Santander 3-2. While they bagged three points, the match was another depiction of their defensive struggles. They’ve conceded at least twice in three of their last four games.
