Alaves is on the edge of the relegation zone. They managed to surprise Villarreal with a 1-0 win in their last home game, which is their only victory in the last eight rounds. However, they have not had a chance to win two times in a row at home this season, and their victories remain rare for the team. Nevertheless, they hope for points from this match, as under 2.5 goals were scored in the last eight home games of Alaves.
Five consecutive rounds without a win for Rayo VallecanoRayo Vallecano is in 9th position. They have slightly distanced themselves from the European zone after five consecutive rounds without a win. They suffered three minimal losses in them, but all three were against teams in the top 5 of the standings. Two of them were away games against Real Madrid and Barcelona, and before that, they had five consecutive visits without a loss in La Liga. Under 2.5 goals were scored in eight of the last nine away games of Rayo in the championship.
Prediction: X2 double chance, under 2.5 goalsI don't think Alaves is the better team of the two, despite having home advantage. In my opinion, Rayo will not lose this match, in which probably the goals will not be many.
