Las Palmas vs Rayo Vallecano Preview and Team News
Las Palmas Team News
Las Palmas are running out of time to escape the relegation zone, especially since they missed their chance against Valencia (2-3) last weekend.
Though it took a while for the team to get in the game, Las Palmas finally woke up, and both sides had their chances.
Valencia took the lead in the 22nd minute through Hugo Duro. But a penalty converted by Ramírez brought an even result before half-time. Another goal by Duro in the 58th minute and Suarez’s own goal eventually secured the lead for the rivals.

Las Palmas are not relegation-bound, but only three points separate them from Girona. They also have Rayo Vallecano, Sevilla, Leganés, and Espanyol left to get a result, and things are getting tense.
Coach Diego Martínez doesn’t know whether he will extend his contract, due next month. Several players could leave if the team are relegated, leading to questions between journalists and Martínez.
Scott McKenna and Fabio Silva are awaiting medical clearance.
Las Palmas Predicted Line-up vs Rayo Vallecano
Las Palmas vs Rayo Vallecano (4-2-3-1): Horkas; Álex Muñoz, Mármol, Suárez, Viti; Bajčetić, Essugo; Ramirez, Moleiro, Javier Muñoz; McBurnie.
Rayo Vallecano Team News
While Las Palmas are sinking deeper in the relegation battle, Rayo Vallecano secured a 1-0 victory vs Getafe. The squad aim to play in European competitions next season.
Rayo are 8th with 44 points in La Liga, only two behind Celta Vigo. These two will face each other in the penultimate fixture of the season, which could determine who will end up in Europe.

The victory against Getafe at Vallecas was thanks to a splendid strike from Isi Palazón. He remains the team’s most important player going forward. Vallecano played a riskier brand of football following the injury of Pathe Ciss, whose physical profile has been key at the heart of the midfield. Sergio Guardiola played higher up, leading to a more attacking game.
Pathé Ciss and Abdul Mumin will be out with injuries. Jonathan Montiel and Randy Nteka are still waiting for the medical green light.
Rayo Vallecano Predicted line-up vs Las Palmas
Rayo Vallecano Predicted line-up vs Las Palmas (4-2-3-1): Cárdenas; Chavarria, Hernández, Lejeune, Balliu; Guardiola, López; Embarba, Isi Palazón, de Frutos; García.
Bet hereLas Palmas vs Rayo Vallecano Prediction
- Prediction: Rayo Vallecano to win
- Odds: 3.08 (22Bet)
- Score Prediction: Las Palmas 0-1 Rayo Vallecano
There was some uncertainty ahead of the Getafe match regarding whether Rayo could grind out a victory without Ciss. His involvement as a defensive midfielder has been key to keeping balance. Sergi Guardiola filled in well and is expected to feature again.
Las Palmas are uncertain about Fabio Silva’s recovery. Should he not make it, Vallecano may come out with a victory, especially with Balliu and Isi Palazón sprinting forward.
Las Palmas vs Rayo Vallecano Betting Tip
- Pick: Isi Palazón to score
- Odds: 4.5 (22Bet)
If Rayo Vallecano lack a quality striker, the quality of Isi Palazón is usually enough to ensure opponents stay back. The advanced midfielder often appears between the lines, finding his teammates in the final third. His connection with Balliu down the right has been a headache for many opponents, who must then dedicate multiple men to Palazón.
With Las Palmas conceding three against Valencia, a goal from Palazón would not be too surprising.
