Espanyol vs Rayo Vallecano Prediction & Tips
Rayo’s spectacular free fall continues and they have now gone a whopping 13 games without a win, the last one at Mendizorroza, with a defeat against Alavés. They are now only five points clear of the relegation zone, and face two difficult away trips this week, to Cornellá and Camp Nou. In the first, Espanyol, who have just lost to Atlético, but with 39 points to their name, face a pleasant end to the season with virtual salvation in the bag. Despite this, the Perico side are very competitive in every game, as if there was more than just three points at stake. At home, they are also one of the best teams in the championship. If only the points obtained at home were taken into account, Vicente Moreno’s men would be fighting for Europe.
Espanyol have taken 11 of their last 15 points at home.
Rayo are the worst home side in the division, tied on points with Alaves.
The team with the red stripe have gone 13 games without a win, with only three draws.
The likes of Real Sociedad, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Sevilla have all lost at Cornellá this season.
We believe that the victory will stay in Barcelona, as Rayo’s negative streak does not invite to bet on the opposite. At ST, we’re going for a 1 in this match.
