Atl. Madrid vs Rayo Vallecano Prediction & Tips
Atlético Madrid come into this match in far from ideal form and with a notable drop in performance. At the start of the season, the team has only managed one victory — at home against Villarreal. In the rest of their matches, the Colchoneros have drawn three times with an identical score of 1-1 and suffered two defeats: on the first day of LaLiga against Espanyol (1-2) and in their Champions League debut against Liverpool (2-3). The defence is particularly worrying: Atlético have conceded goals in every match except the one they won.
Rayo Vallecano cannot boast a great start to the season either. The team began with a solid 3-1 away win over Girona, then successfully navigated the Conference League qualifying phase by eliminating Belarusian side Neman and advancing to the main draw of the tournament. However, in the domestic championship, things have not gone so well: in the last four matchdays, Rayo has failed to win a single game. They suffered two away defeats — against Osasuna and Athletic Club — and drew twice at home, against Celta and Barcelona.
