Rayo Vallecano sit 10th in La Liga, after losing 3-1 to Athletic Club. The team opened the scoring through Pathé Ciss shortly before half-time, but couldn’t keep the intensity in the second at San Mamés.
Athletic dominated the match, but Rayo often generated a positional advantage in counterattacks. Everything changed in the second half when Oihan Sancet converted a penalty, leaving Vallecano unsettled.
Despite the side having its moments, they failed to capitalize on their chances. The last quarter led to a tired Rayo, as Athletic Club sealed a 3-1 victory, spurred on by an electric atmosphere.
Vallecano were close to fighting for European spots but have struggled to make an impact in recent weeks. They’ve managed just one win in their last eight games. While injuries haven’t been a major issue, the lack of squad depth has left the team looking physically drained.
Sergio Camello, Abdul Mumin, and Jonathan Montiel are out with injuries.
Rayo Vallecano Predicted line-up vs Valencia (4-2-3-1): Batalla; Espino, A. Hernández, Lejeune, Ratiu; Gumbau, Ciss; Chavarria, Diaz, De Frutos; A. García
Valencia’s story is a gift that keeps giving. After escaping relegation threats with the appointment of Carlos Corberán, the team are now dreaming of Europe. They defeated Sevilla 1-0, thanks to Javier Guerra’s strike at the end of the first half.
With Sevilla incapable of reacting, Valencia claimed the three points as they dominated the second half. The squad remained undefeated in their last six matches, drawing twice and winning four.
As a result of their good form, they are now 13th in La Liga, seven points away from the European spots, for the first time since COVID-19. This is important for the announced renovation of the stadium, as sponsors are seeking assurances about Valencia’s stability and performance.
With the recent success of the team, new sponsorship deals are expected to be finalized.
Ivan Jaime and Thierry Correia remain sidelined through injuries, while Cristhian Mosquera is awaiting medical green light.
Valencia Predicted line-up vs Rayo Vallecano (4-2-3-1): Mamardashvili; Gayà, Mosquera, Tárrega, Foulquier; Guerra, Barrenechea; D. López, Almeida, Rioja; Sadiq.
Bet hereThe hosts’ bad form makes a home defeat likely, despite their usual strength in Vallecas. With fatigued players and a lack of plan B, Valencia could take advantage of the momentum being on their side.
Though Rayo have often relied on having one of the best shot-stoppers, they’ll face Mamardashvili, who is widely regarded as one of La Liga’s top goalkeepers.
The maturity of most of Valencia’s frontline makes a case for a more experienced team, a key to winning the match during the game’s most crucial phases.
Umar Sadiq’s loan to Valencia has been one of the reasons Corberán could turn the club’s season around. His physical dominance in the box has allowed the visitors to dominate games they otherwise would not have. He also improves his scoring record with each appearance.
If Valencia can supply him with quality crosses or through balls inside the box, he’s likely to pose a serious threat to Rayo’s defence.
