Rayo Vallecano, a stable mid-table La Liga team since 2021, have collected 20 points in their first 17 league matches. However, they have only won one of their last seven games in all competitions. In their previous match against Osasuna, they lost 1-0, allowing a goal late in the second half and remaining empty-handed.

Valencia and Rayo Vallecano have been similar this season, with both having 20 points and winning only one of their last six matches. In a 1-1 home match against Barcelona, Valencia had a high xG of 3.52, while the home team had only 0.40. Despite this, Valencia managed to avoid defeat.

Francisco Rodriguez, the head coach of Rayo Vallecano, expressed disappointment after the team’s late loss against Osasuna, stating that they were not successful in goal-scoring and felt screwed. He also addressed Rayo’s attacking issues, while Oscar Trejo is questionable and may miss the upcoming game against Valencia.

Valencia is expected to perform better in the upcoming game due to the return of Gabriel Paulista and Javi Guerra, Jose Raya’s injury, and Andre Almeida’s questionable performance.
