Spanish La Liga / Rayo Vallecano vs Real Madrid

 

 

Analysis:

The La Liga match at Campo de Fútbol de Vallecas on Monday sees home side Rayo Vallecano welcome opponents Real Madrid.

 

Rayo Vallecano

Rayo Vallecano are currently in ninth place in the La Liga standings and have punched above their weight so far this season. The home side edged Sevilla to an important 1-0 victory last week and will be confident ahead of this fixture.

 

Real Madrid

Real Madrid, on the other hand, are at the top of the league table at the moment and have been in impressive form on the domestic front. Los Blancos thrashed Celtic by a 5-1 margin in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.

 

Verdict:

Rayo Vallecano are perfectly capable of pulling off an upset on their day and stunned Sevilla last week. Real Madrid are the better team on paper, however, and should be able to win this game.

 

Away win
